Re: setll, reade question.

By the way, a word of some caution, there is a subtle difference in the
way the SETLL and READE works when you're using only one key, depending
on whether you (1) define a KLIST with only one key in the list and use
that KLIST, or (2) use the single key value as the key, not as a KLIST.

Don't throw things at me, but I don't remember what it was, but it got
me once.

Ok, I won't throw anything ... but it's hard to take away any caution from this without knowing what to watch out for.

As far as I know, the handling of a KLIST with one KFLD is exactly the same as for a single key value.

Maybe what you recall is indeed the same scenario as Ken ran into where you coded *ZERO or *BLANK and it applied to all the keys, not just the first one.
