If you've a uniquely keyed table by order # and you are using order number to find the record for use in your program, why aren't you CHAINing to it?

Then your %FOUND logic should work.

I guess I need help with SETGT

I have a physical file keyed unique by order number.

I do the following.

Order# = 561329;     // 561329 is the highest value, and also the physically
last record in the file
SETGT Order# MyFile;
READPE Order# MyFile;
If %found(MyFile);

I don't get a Hit, %found evaluates to false.
Any other value give a Hit. But I don't get a Hit using the highest value
(also being the last physical record) in the file?

Is this the correct behavior for SETGT?
