AW: AW: How to properly use %EOF() bif?

Hi Scott,

I think my English is sometimes not good enough to distinguish between small
subtleties.

But I think the essential is to differentiate between "EOF without File" or
"EOF with file".

Hi Birgitta,

>>> Chain does not set the value of %EOF  (it doesn't turn it on or off)
[SNIP]
> %EOF with no parameter is not changed by these operations.
> 1. CHAIN (Random Retrieval from a File) on page 573

Sounds like they're saying the same thing to me?  One says chain does not
set the value of %EOF <--- note that there's no parameter listed there.
The other says "%EOF with no parameter is not changed by CHAIN".

Where's the discrepancy?
