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

Following code works without any problem on our system. We are on V5R4.

FXXFILE if e k disk
D XX1 s 1A
D X S 3s 0 inz
/Free
XX1 = 'O';

Setll (XX1: 11) XXFILE;
Reade (XX1: 11) XXFILE;

Dow not %eof;
Eval x = X + 1;
Reade (XX1: 11) XXFILE;
Enddo;

*inlr = *on;
/End-Free

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.
