        [And Brad Said:]  See, it's not the cycle that is hard to
understand, it's all the other garbage (arrays for subfiles... cmon.. what
is this, a Sys/36?) and left hand inicators (not counting Ln indicators).  

        I think when most of us defend the cycle we are talking about using
it for simply reporting, not screens or anything else.  The flow is simple,
the level breaks are made easier with the cycle, and there isn't any other
AS/400 "tricks" used.

        How much easier is this?
