Booth,

Was that blocking on a Primary file, though?

I've found that using a Primary file (where applicable) is an astounding
increase in performance.

 NBRRCDS(3)??  a very small file?

What is it you are looking for? Performance improvements?  Have you taken
out the K?

My experience with Block(*yes) was a revelation.  It provided close to 70%
reduction in processing time in two different applications.  I was
astounded
