With all due respect <g>, when the OVRDBF is in effect, it makes no
difference for a primary or secondary file whether a file is specified as
keyed.  Only when a full procedural file is accessed randomly, the compiler
demands the file to be keyed (and at runtime you find out the OPNQRYF has to
be specified as SEQONLY(*NO) as well).

And another lovely bit of information for all those who love or hate the
cycle: you can even specify match fields for a primary file without using a
secondary file!
