You might consider creating a logical which includes only the records which 
meet your selection criteria, then do an OVRDBF so that your maintenance 
program uses the logical instead of the parent.

Subject:        Changeing records in a big file



I have a 4 million record file that I need to change some records in if 
they meet certain criteria.   What are some things I can do to speed this 
up. obviously sequential reading of the file is out of the question at over 

4 hours to run.  I would prefer not to use the SETLL if possible,  because 
I don't want to have to go in to the file and see what record to start 
with.


thanks for any help.
