Alfred,

Is it _likely_ that the RRN will change? No. At least not from the time
you read it using the multi-field key to the time you update it using
the RRN. However, I would _never_ recommend using RRN to do updates. RRN
is a artifact of a bygone era, and barring some very rare performance
issues RRN should never be used.

Multi-field keys, while annoying for web/windows programmers, are the
standard on the System i, and I'd strongly recommend using the "correct"
key to access the row(s).
