The funny thing about Scott's solution is that CL is totally incidental to the process.
It could have been any other language calling the C file procedures.
I don't think the OP should submit this solution as his answer to his homework assignment.

Hi Joel,
I had the impression that the OP wanted this in reverse RRN sequence.
SQL would not be a very efficient way to do that (though, I guess it could work.) I thought record-level access would be better for this sort of thing.
If you really want to see my code, it's here:

There are probably 100 ways it could be improved, but I don't plan to actually use it.
Keep in mind that (as I've already said) I don't think this is a good technique, and I don't really recommend anyone do anything this way. (I can't say that enough.)

Hey - someday we may ALL have to take this test to keep our position
