RE: primary and secondary files, match fields, summarizing/printi ng single line per key

Carl
        no its not a limitation of the language.
I have used Primary/secondary Matching record
programs a fair bit and still use them where
its the best solution.
I asked that all L1 fields were the same, this
also applies to L2 and L3 (which will also cause
L1 to be on).
Incidentally, I don't use MR at all.
  
The only difference I see between your version
& what I have used is that you have M6 level
but with no level break indicator against them.
I assume this is ok since the compiler would have
thrown it out.

As mentioned earlier, its best to rename one set 
of fields to be the same as the other file fields.

Unfortunately I cannot quite see what is the 
problem....

Mike, Sudha, Rick,

Thank you for answering. I'm sorry if my replies are coming in late. I'm in
a GMT+8 time zone. I can say for certain (using the interactive debugger)
that all the control fields have the same value, and *INL1 is triggered
twice every time, once for the primary and another time for the secondary.

I also tried Rick's suggestion of using the MR indicator, but the result is
the same.

Is this perhaps a limitation of the language? And can't be done without the
use of an extract file as Mike suggested?
