Re: SetLL *start

I have a non-keyed view (created with CREATE VIEW) that I need to

setll *start HOURCODER;
read HOURCODER;

What am I doing wrong?


According to the manual:

"If the file is accessed by relative record number, |search-arg must contain an integer literal, named constant, or numeric field with no decimal positions."

Thus, *START is not valid. *LOVAL might work. I had this problem before but I can't find the example to tell you what I did.
