Thanks to all for your attention to this matter. I have learned alot about 
SETGT and READPE today ;-) . I guess I thought that, if the SETGT did not 
find a key greater than the one supplied, and positioned the file to EOF, 
the subsequent READPE would then find the prior equal-key record for the 
account (which would be the very last record in the file), get the sequence 
number, add 1, and write the record successfully. If SETGT is performing as 
per the manual, then it must be the EOF condition that prevents the READPE 
from working.
