It may be faster to ...
SetLL (key) file;
If %Equal();
ReadE (Key) file;
EndIf;
If you've already postioned the file, no need to chain.

I need to get data from a file but I know that for every 100 records I
process only 1 will have a record in the file I am going to CHAIN to. Is it
faster to first to a SETLL to see if the key exists and if it does do a
CHAIN or is just doing the CHAIN just as fast? Many years ago in the S/38
days I know the recommendation was to the SETLL then the CHAIN.
