Re: SETLL *START and %EQUAL

The OP was (and by the way, the %EQUAL in the subject line) and this was meant as a reply to that.

Your answer was good, I was just adding to yours and Jon's. I don't know why you thought mine was a reply to yours.

Hello Alan,

I would rephrase Jon's explanation this way.

When you use SETLL using the key field values for the file you're reading, you get %equal = '1' if it finds a record with keys that match those values. If you key field "valules" is *START, you aren't giving the statement any arguments to match against the key fields. "Whatever you get" is meaningless, because the question becomes, "Equal to what, exactly?"
I wasn't referring to using %EQUAL at all.

:wq! PoC
