RE: reads and updates on the same file

When loading the subfile use the read(n) to read with no lock then when
you need to update chain with the keys to lock the record for update....

Subject: reads and updates on the same file

This program displays a subfile of all records in the file and  later 
updates individual records.
To avoid record locks, I created a new logical file with the same key as
the 
originals.
Is there a more elegant solution, which avoids creating a second
logical?
This is my first posting, so I would appreciate any advice.
Thanks, Ken
