I'd be concerned that the date field is likely to be the highest date
from the last read cycle, not *loval. After the first read in the
program it is unlikely that he will ever find a record with a date
lower than the highest date read since the first cycle of the program.

Subject: READE with partial key
Suppose I have a file defined via DDL with unique key consisting of
Item (ascending)
Date (ascending)
// Set position in file
SETLL Item FILE;
// Only while this item
Dow '1';
Reade Item FILE;
If %EOF(FILE);
Leave;
Endif;
process record . . .
Enddo;
I am not assured of getting records within this item in ascending
Date
company. Unless I say so.
