Recently, there was a discussion here about CIUPDATE not re-sorting the 
items when a sort field was changed.  In conjunction with this I am 
reviewing our programs to see if this could be a problem for us.  I 
have a question that I am sure is answered in the Image manual (which 
I do not have access to here in Texas).  When you have a sort field 
defined in a data set, is the sort maintained only on the primary 
key?  IOW, is there any guarantee of a certain sort sequence when 
reading the set (chained) by a secondary key?

TIA.
