Re: No Report for Deleted Record

Hi Ted,

Just a couple of suggestions: if you don't need the indicator, don't use it,
and try specifying the file name within the %found, just to eliminate any
possible confusion:

> 0111.00 c                   delete    SB220AP
> 0112.00 c                   if        %found(SB220AP)

Actually though, the manual is sort of ambiguous on using %found for a
delete that has no key (factor 1):

"If factor 1 has an entry, positions 71 and 72 can contain an indicator that
is set on if the record to be deleted is not found in the file. If factor 1
does not have an entry, leave these positions blank. This information can
also be obtained from the %FOUND built-in function, which returns '0' if no
record is found, and '1' if a record is found."
