Have you got a simple example, 'cos I still can't get my head round
them, and the manual does not help me either!

Colin, 

if you understand L1 then you understand MR.   Matching record 
only queues 
the files in the order of the F-specs and presents the records in the 
proper ascending order.  Its the easiest way to process a header record 
file and one-to-many detail record files for a customer, for 
instance.  It 
replaces SETLL, READ, and READE.  It doesn't replace READP.

Matched Records. The very thought frightens me.

Chris,

It's a deep, dark, secret that us geezers use to solve one shot 
problems with a minimum amount of code.

It's no longer in general practice, but if you join the secret 
order of the MR you will get a decoder
ring. ;-)
