Re: R: RPG Indicators

[boothm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

This is how I think of it:  SetLL is "Set Lower Limit" not "Set at a 
record".   The SETLL opcode does not really care if a record exists or 
not, only if it can get Lower or Equal to factor 1.  If it can do that, 
then it has succeeded and would consider itself as "%found".

Hi Jon,

I just ran into this yesterday. When using SETLL to determine if a
particular key exists, using %found doesn't do it. You *have* to use the
equals indicator. %found will return true if an exact or generic match is
found, even if the equals indicator only is specified.
