Re: Using RRN 0 to do Setll on arrival sequence file

Will setll (*start)  do the trick?

Ah, but did you try doing a read after the setll with 0?

It'd be interesting if the read works.

Uummm.
For a non empty file, READ will be successful when cursor is at BOF.
READ will failed when cursor is at EOF. The opposite applies for READP. 
So, for me, technically, they are not the same.
