Re: Chaining with multiple key fields

Pete,

I seem to remember that chaining with on-the-fly keylists caused a problem 
if the first key field was numeric or packed.

There should be a PTF to cure that...

Here is the whole tamale:
 
    C/Free
         IF  #$FY  >  50;
              FYKEY = 1900 + #$FY;
          ELSE;
              FYKEY = 2000 + #$FY;
        ENDIF;

      CHAIN FYKEY FPCS101;
 
      IF  %FOUND;

         Count# = 1;

         dow Count# <= 5;

         if COCrt(count#) <> *blanks;
 
           if COPOSN = Count#;
              Chain Crt(count#) PPCS120;
              If %found;
                Sht(count#) = PDSHRT;
                lng(count#) = PDDESC;
              ENDIF;
           else;
            Chain (count# : Crt(count#))  PPCS105;
              If %found;
                sht(count#) = CCSHRT;
                lng(count#) = CCDESC;
              ENDIF;
           ENDIF;
         Endif;
         Count# = Count# + 1;
         ENDDO;
       ENDIF;
  /End-Free

I don't see anywhere that I missed a closing ";" or paren or whatever 
but these eyes have just about had it today.....
