Dumb Question I still process some files via RPG READ loop after *LOVAL SETLL I want to access a file by descending key & would you believe I have never done that before via READ* variants? I have got a logical of the records in descending sequence & I am not sure if my logic would be same pattern ie. *LOVAL SETLL file then READ loop ("forwards" through the records) or if I should *HIVAL SETHH at begeinning because I'm going to be reading backwards. Reason for this is I want to flag the oldest entries for deletion & I thought I would start at the beginning of the point I want to keep. MacWheel99@aol.com (Alister Wm Macintyre) (Al Mac)
