RPG/400)...

     FMYDSPF  CF  E                    WORKSTN                         
     F                                              KINFDS ZWSDS       
------------ records excluded ---------------------------------
     IZWSDS       DS                                                   
     I                                    B 154 1550ZWSWD

     C           ZWSWD     IFLT 132                                    
     C**** do something                       
     C                     ENDIF
