Yes Doug you are right I have not posted alternative code.  However, when
nearly all my programs are done with SQLRPGLE, I do not see how cycle logic
will serve any purpose when I don't even have an F spec for my primary
files.  Now if it does do that and I just don't see it, then I certainly
might have to consider using it my programs.

Ron,

Of course not.  But I'm still waiting for somebody to post an alternative to
my
code which they recommend instead of the cycle.  You've done two replies now
which do not suggest an alternative.

All I'm asking for is code to back up the claims DIY is easier to understand
and
maintain.  I took the first volley.  I'm still waiting for the ball to come
over
the net.

After that we can compare DIY matching records logic with full exceptions
handling. <g>
