Not understand the issue yet.

If there is a dup key error the program will loop and get the next number again.
        Dou        not %error(myFile)
        eval       MO.Mmseq# = getNextMmSeq#(CI.Family# :CI.Member#)
      Write(e) Mmorec MO
        enddo

returned to the caller
2)  The user, on the phone with an irate customer, presses enter on a
memo record
3)  The program performs the write op
*** dup key
