Hello Folks,

Am 26.06.2020 um 13:52 schrieb Patrik Schindler <poc@xxxxxxxxxx>:

is it possible with the facilities available through logical files to have some flavour of READ of that particular LF return the next record with a non-equal key?

Thanks for your valuable input!

@Jeff: Ouch, yes. :-) How obvious! Thanks for pointing out. :-)

@Vernon: Thanks for reassuring that it can't be done solely with LFs.

@Mark: Thanks for your point to OPNQRYF. I wasn't aware of this one and so I'll see if I can dig up more documentation about that one.

@Birgitta: Thanks also. See subject, I could achieve my goal with a simple "SELECT DISTINCT", but since this should be run on my 150, I hesitate to use SQL which is inherently slow compared to "native" calls. In fact, at the moment it is SQL, but I managed to get another selection of records with "just" a JOIN LF and Select/Omit. Maybe OPNQRYF could be a nice alternative.

@Jim: Yes, old.

:wq! PoC
