Re: SetGT/ReadPE method Exception

That's it. Now I get it *light bulb turns on*

SETGT is positioning the file to EOF, and READPE is working, but I am basing 
my test on %FOUND, which is not touched by READPE. If I, as you say, base my 
test on %EOF, then the decision structure will be based no the READPE. 

I changed the code to:

Dou Not %Error; 
SetGT(E) (Family:Member) MmoRec; 
If %Error; 
ExSR FileError; 
EndIf; 

ReadPE(E) (Family:Member) MmoRec M;
If %Error; 
ExSR FileError; 
EndIf; 

If %EOF(CMmemo); 
Mo.Mmseq#=1; 
Else; 
Mo.Mmseq#=M.Mmseq#+1; 
EndIf; 

Write(E) MmoRec Mo; 
EndDo; 

Thanks to all that helped. Hmmm... That makes me think. Shouldn't READPE set 
a %BOF function -- because it's at the beg.... <--- Proof I think too hard 
about stuff ;-)
