Re: Setting parms in CL for PF

To me, this is an ideal spot for using the cycle and primary/secondary
matching records, if the key fields are identical.  

It would be even faster if the files were reorganized first, but I bet that
reorg would be a killer.

I'm reading a record in File1 and chaining to File2.  If no record is found,
it writes to File2.  If record is found, it then checks about 5 fields and
if the fields are identical in both records, no update is performed.  If
they're not the same, the info from File1 is moved and written to File2.
