Capt j,
<chuckle>   Think about it.  If you use LF1 the only records you are going
to get is those with CODE = 'C' and those would be in FLDA order.
Now with LFx   keys   CODE, FLDA...
Now I could have a keylist like
     EVAL   CODE  = 'C'
CODE      Setll     LFx
CODE Reade     LFx
I will get the SAME results.  Only CODE 'C's  in FLDA order !!
But then using THE SAME LFx  I could
     EVAL   CODE  = 'O'
CODE Setll     LFx
CODE Reade     LFx
ALL  Using the Same LFx
