     Best way is to use the information DS against the file in question.
RRN will return the actual record number in the file. Please note that
this can sometimes not always be correct - specifically when the AS/400
decides to read the records in blocks or something like this.

EG:

FFile    IF  E           K        DISK         KINFDS INFDS
IINFDS       DS
I                                    B 397 4000RRN
