Re: program to read pf in reverse order using cl/400 program

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Notice also that:

1) I asked what was meant by "reverse" (reverse of WHAT? Key? RRN?) and 
the poster did not clarify, but merely restated the same question.

2) I asked for a definition of the file to read in reverse, and the 
poster did not reply.

It sure makes me wonder about this OP!

FWIW -- I wrote myself a little CL program that does indeed read a file 
in reverse RRN sequence.  It works on any PF, and runs very fast.  Not 
sure I want to post it here, though -- I'd say the best answers have 
already been given:  "Do it in RPG."
