I use block fetches when I do this kinda stuff. So it will perform MUCH better than single FETCH PRIOR in a loop. The RELATIVE is indeed in the order of the (opened) access path. I have had poor experiences with hitting BOF and EOF. The FETCH that is suppose to "start over" did not. I ended up working around the issue. If I had the time, I would chase IBM with a stick over how it did not work. *SIGH* But do not let my poor experience deter you from your attempt. What you are attempting is WONDERFUL, once you get it working. L. Wayne James Senior Developer Agilysys, Inc.

Can I presume that a "FETCH RELATIVE -20" is more efficient than doing a "FETCH PRIOR" in a loop 20 times? And, just to clarify, is it RELATIVE to the access path defined by the ORDER BY? (And _not_ by RRN?) What happens if it causes the cursor to hit BOF (or EOF when using RELATIVE +nn)?
