Daniel,

Do a

        MOVE HIGH-VALUES TO PRICE-TABLE

before you load your inventory data in.

SEARCH ALL requires the contents of the table (the ENTIRE contents!) to be
in ascending order, otherwise "the results of any SEARCH ALL statement will
be unpredictable." (quote from manual!).

Unless you specifically initialize the table, the unused entries contain
spaces (hex 40) which are less than numbers (hex F0-F9). That makes the
table out of order, and confuses the SEARCH ALL.

Hope this helps!
Richard

Hi all,

Why can't I get my "search all" to work?  This is driving me nuts!



01  PRICE-TABLE.

    05 prices occurs 1500 times

       ascending key is inv-code

       indexed by ws-price-rec.

       10 inv-code          pic x(5).

       10 unit-price        pic 9(7)v9(4).





move "005  " to hold-me.

SEARCH all prices

   at end

      display hold-me " not found"

   when inv-code (ws-price-rec) = hold-me

        move unit-price of PRICES (ws-price-rec)

          to current-unit-price

        move "N" to eor-UNIT-PRICE.



display

        " price$"

        current-unit-price.
