I have a LF with two formats. The two formats are identified by I specs that turn on an appropriate indicator when either of the formats is read.

So, I have this code

xxky setll <filename>
xxky reade <filename>

if *IN09 = *ON
xxky delete <format1>
endif

if *IN10 = *ON
xxky delete <format2>


My simple question is: Is this how the delete is coded for a LF with multiple formats? I RARELY use delete, as that is usually handled by the vendor code, but I have a mess to clean up, and don't want to make it worse.

There is a lot more to the code than the above. I left that out as the record selection logic >appears< (over 13000 records to delete) to be correct. A separate file is supplying the partial key for a loop.
