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

In answer to your question - yes, provided the 11 in "reade (XX1: 11)
XXFILE;" is in fact the second key of the 3 and not the third key
(Hope that made sense)

nah. Tried it. It didn't work. Acted exactly the same.

I am thinking that it may have to do with the "reade (XX1: 11) XXFILE;"
line? Does this reade with two keys act the same as a 2-field klist in
factor 1 when run against a 3-key file?

I've seen it before and that's why I always use the name of the file in

the

bif.

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.
