RE: Reade With a Packed Field

[Chris Bipes <rpg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The only problem I ever had with READE was fixed via PTF.  The READE was
reading past the key value and not setting on EOF indicator or BIF.  Check
the archives about it.  Hans responded rather quickly to my inquiry.  This
was for V4R3M0.  It should work. Equal is Equal no matter what the value.
Is this a join logical by chance.  That is where my problem was.

Subject: Reade With a Packed Field


Has anyone ever had a problem using Reade with a partial key and one
of the keys is packed and the data in the packed field ends with a C
and not a F? Any ideas on why this would not work?
