I am trying to set up a COBOL program that reads records in a KSAMXL file
based on an exact match to a key value.  The file can contain multiple
records based on the key value.  I only want to read those records that
match the key value exactly.  I have been able to successfully find and read
the first record using FREADBYKEY and FFINDBYKEY+FREAD, but then subsequent
FREADs will take the rest of the KSAMXL file until it hits EOF.  How do I
limit the FREAD so that it only reads the qualifying logical records (based
on the key value)?  If someone could provide the intrinsic sequence and
logic I can figure out the programming details.  Thank you for your
assistance.
