Where I work, training is something of a dirty word.
To read multiple records using a partial key in RPG III, I do this:
xxkey chain xxfmt LR
*INLR doweq *OFF
xxkey reade xxfmt LR
enddo
On a project a few years ago, written in RPG IV, that code did not work.
The only way we found to make it work was to do this:
xxkey setll xxfmt
xxkey reade xxfmt
dow not %eof(xxfile)
xxkey reade xxfmt
enddo
Doing a CHAIN to position and read the first record when multiple records were read just went to end of file, as I recall. Been too long.
Were we doing someting wrong that caused the RPG IV code to fail? This has really been bugging me for a long time. I couldn't find a reason for the bizarre behavior in my searching. It >may< have been an error when only one record with the matching subkey was found. Again, I just don't remember.
