RE: urgent

[Scott Mildenberger <Smildenber@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Note that the BLOCK(*NO) is not required to get the proper RRN with RPG IV.
This was required for RPG III but RPG IV always has the proper RRN whether
the records are blocked or not.  Using BLOCK(*NO) could have performance
impacts depending on the particular application.
