Brain Lapse, You are correct?

In 20 years of programming with RPG, I've lost my hair, my eye sight, and
now my mind is failing.

Reade and Readpe do not set the %FOUND built in. Use %EOF instead. (And
yes you still use %EOF even if you are moving backwards through the file.)

Help with SETGT






I guess I need help with SETGT

I have a physical file keyed unique by order number.

I do the following.

Order# = 561329; // 561329 is the highest value, and also the
physically
last record in the file
SETGT Order# MyFile;
READPE Order# MyFile;
If %found(MyFile);

I don't get a Hit, %found evaluates to false.
Any other value give a Hit. But I don't get a Hit using the highest value
(also being the last physical record) in the file?

Is this the correct behavior for SETGT?
