   I am having difficultly with what I thought would be a simple thing to do.

   When a user tries to update a record that is locked by another job, I want
   to tell the user not only that the record is locked but who has the record
   locked. I am trying to use the the API QDBRRCDL since it would return all
   the info I would need.

   I can get the Library/File/Member name from the INFDS but the all alusive
   relative record number I don't have because I didn't have a successful
   file operation. The RRN comes back as a big fat ZERO.

   I could do a CHAIN(N) right after my error to get the proper RRN but that
   seems very cumbersome and expensive. I also could leave the RRN at ZERO
   and it would send all the records that a have a lock. That again would
   seem cumbersome and expensive to figure out which one I really want.

   Am I missing something????  Is there another API?
