Subject: Non-unique keys
Assuming a keyed PF, non-uniquely keyed, opened as externally-described,
from RPG:
Is there any guarantee that, when reading all the records for a
particular key (starting with a CHAIN for the initial read, and a READE

RRN within those matching the key?
(And no, I didn't design the bloody file!)
