Re: READE in Free form, and dow not %eof

If you have the *INLR = *on; code in a place that never gets executed and
don't have return at the end of the program that may be the problem. One
or the other must happen or the RPG cycle will cause what you are
describing, It's happened to me.

Hi Booth
I'm not sure if this will make a difference, but change the %eof to
%eof(XXFILE)
compile and test

READE in Free form, and dow not %eof

Something is not working the way I expected.

I have a file with three keys. I want to read all records (53 of them)
where key1 = the value in XX1 and key2 = 11.

Here's what I think I have done:
FXXFILE if e k disk
XX1 = 'O';
// Retrieve XXFILE record:
setll (XX1: 11) XXFILE;
reade (XX1: 11) XXFILE;
dow not %eof;
... stuff
reade (XX1: 11) XXFILE;
enddo;

This all works as I expect in debug *except* that once the 53 records
are retrieved nothing more that I can see happens. It acts like an
endless loop, but I just don't know what is happening.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.
