RE: Sequence error in MR

["Booth Martin" <Booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Trigger programs.  Write trigger programs to prevent widows and orphans.  Do
it once and forget it. Don't rely on your programmers getting it right every
time.
 
 As for the delete loop, wouldn't this be fairly simple:

>c ORDER chain (e) BLPART
>
>c                Dow %found(BLPART)
>c                Delete BLPART
>c ORDER chain (e) BLPART
>c                enddo

Rick,
 
I think you will not delete any record the way you do it. You will get an NF
or EOF condition and the file pointer will be moved to EOF and remains there

 
So I use SETLL to reset the file pointer (just to be sure it is in the right
position) and then start deleting the records (by key).
 
Regards,
Carel Teijgeler.
