Re: Having a major brain-fart on READE with a partial key in program-described mode . . .

My memory is that the key is defined on the F-spec. Then one would define 2 data structure for the key, with sub-fields for the partial keys, with inz(*loval) on the unused partial for one data structure and inz(*hival) for the other data structure. A SETLL gets you there, and a READ/DOU key > Datastructure 2 takes you home.

I have a file opened as program-described, and I need to go to the first record matching a partial key, then step through all records matching that partial key.

And I can't bloody remember how you do that in program-described mode.
