I write to a work file the keys of the orphan, and the name of the
file.(I use 2
programs both have MR logic, one for the Master v  Detail the other for
the
Detail V Invoice Detail)
I have a program that generates a report from the work file.
I then have a clean up program that reads the work file (using CHAIN)
and
writes the rocords to the error file (using WRITE) and delete the
records
from the problem file (using DELETE).  I then clear the clean-up file.
I can manually add data to the clean up file if needed.
