Elonna,

Subfiles aren't keyed so you can't position the subfile based on a name.
However, you could create a shadow work file with Name, RRN.  This work file
is created as you load your subfile.  When the user wants to position by
name you SETLL into your shadow work file to retrieve the RRN and display
the subfile using that RRN in the SFLRCDNBR field.

This assumes you're loading all your customers in the subfile. If you're
doing 'page at a time' loading then you'll have to do some complicated
processing if they select a name not already in the subfile.  You'd have to
load the subfile & work file up to the page containing that name.
