No.  We aren't paying proper attention.


If %Found(Mmemo_I);
MO.Mmseq#=MI.Mmseq#+1;
Else;
MO.Mmseq#=1;
EndIf;

Oldest ILE problem in the book.  %found is not set by READPE.  Only %EOF
is set.  So, if a READPE occurs and it gets a hit, %eof will be '0'.  If
it doesn't get a match, %eof will be '1'.

How about:

if %eof(Mmemo_I);
    MO.Mmseq# = 1;
Else;
    MO.Mmseq# = MI.Mmseq#+1;
endif;
