Re: READ for not exact key

Never understood why old code is left in anyway. At least not past the
testing/debug stage.

Does it serve a purpose other than to say... "somebody changed their
mind."?

It's not very good as documentation and as you say, it's more difficult to
read when dealing in older SEU style editors or B&W prints.

"My personal opinion, I HATE when other programmers only put an * on the
line to comment it out. There should be more than one or at least move the
rest of the line so that it no longer lines up with the rest of the code.
I always end up reading that as being active code."

I personally hate the misalignment / jaggedness (in non-free of course) so
I have started putting ** right in front of the opcode as in **ENDDO (along
with the required * in the comment column). This keeps alignment correct
but is VERY obvious that the line is commented out. I also do the same
with CL and DDS.

Okay. that's what we were missing. pol is a key list. The more
information the better. We cannot only guess when you don't provide enough
information.

Your program should be reading equal to prod and ohorno value. Since
lline is an "*" right after the "c", that line is commented out and isn't
being used in the SETLL or READE.

But I see that in another email you gave the code to step2. In step2 you
have another read on another file. That read is changing the %EoF and
causing your DOU to end prematurely. In your EoF function put the file
name that you are wanting to check.

I am getting the order# from previous step. From header.

Now here I want to read all order lines. But its doing only 1 time.

I will say first I am in the SETLL READ DOW group.
From what I remember SETLL does not set %EOF. %EOF Without a file
designator uses last file read, in this case we don't have enough
code to know the file it is referencing. So the DOU %EOF has no
reference on the first pass. This coding made more sense with
indicators because you can

set

the indicator before entering your loop. You cannot in the program
set

%EOF.

Of course if I'm wrong about SETLL and %EOF this email was a waste.

Pol = order#


actual key of file is

order#
orderline

when running I am only getting one read. Is that correct?

the thing is, I dont have order lines from the previous file read
that header where I get the order#/.

Do I create my own order line values? or should this be working.
