Not to be argumentive either, but are you saying that DB/2 on a 400 doesn't
support
scrollable cursors? I would be rather surprised to find that is true.

And scrollable cursors allow you to position either by sequence or by
reference.

Actually there is a way,

The code here does a subfile completly with sql cursors.

http://code.midrange.com/57ec2af462.html

Not to be argumentative, but there isn't a way without closing the
cursor.
If you do a position to, and then try to get the previous page, you
have to
close the cursor, open a reverse direction cursor using the current
keys,
read N records, then close THAT cursor, open a forward cursor using the
new
keys and read forward.

I assume that's what your "rollup" subroutine does.

There is no way to position a cursor by key.
