Hello Listers,
I have a COBOL program that reads a small (1500 records) Master
dataset in serial mode ('2'), and may have occasion to re-read it
several times in the program.  After doing a 'DBGET' and getting an
EOF condition ('11'), is there a simple way to reset the record pointer
back to the beginning of the set, other than a DBCLOSE and
DBOPEN?  I was thinking of alternating modes on the DBGET
between 2 and 3 (backwards serial read) for each subsequent pass,
since the program will select just a few records and sort them
according to user specifications.

Thank you for any suggestions,
Connie
