Looks right to me.
Is the file really indexed (are you pointing to something else that
isn't)?
Does the index really start in position 2 for 23 long?
Does the arrival sequence just happen to match the key?

It has been a long time.

This reads the file in arrival order, not in key sequence. What have I
missed?
