re-reading records in CL (not after EOF!)

Hi all

I hit a problem today that I didn't expect with reading a file in a CL 
routine. The first time looping through the file (150+ records) the 
program found the record (RRN=4 ) it was after and stopped reading at 
that point. The second loop attempted to read from the start again, but 
every variant I've tried always picks up from RRN=5 and reads from there. 

Initially I tried with 
        OVRDBF POSITION(*START)
        ...loop1...
        DLTOVR
and the same for the second loop. Then I tried with
        OVRDBF POSITION(*START)
        OPNDBF
        ...loop1...
        CLOF
        DLTOVR
but I still get the same results. 

I've used this technique to skip forward records (read first record, then 
start the loop from, say, record 4), but not re-reading. Is CL incapable 
of re-reading earlier records? I know the caveat that you can't re read 
after hitting the end of file, but I'm nowhere near that point. For now 
I've split it into two programs, but I don't see why it can't be just the 
one. I did see mention of POSDBF in the archives, which I'll try 
tomorrow, but can anyone shed any light on this?

Regards, Martin
