        I agree with this suggestion 100% and and would even go as far as to
say....
        cf    if chain(FILE: key1: key2) 
        cf  ..... we found the record
        cf    else
        cf  ...  record not found..
        cf    endif

        change the result of the 'found chain' into a TRUE value....
