The FIND statement positions a direct access file at a particular record and sets the associated variable of the file to that record number. It is comparable to a direct access READ statement with no I/O list, and can open an existing file. No data transfer takes place. Statement format: FIND (u'r [,ERR=s] [,IOSTAT=ios]) FIND ([UNIT=]u, REC=r [,ERR=s] [,IOSTAT=ios]) u Is a logical unit number. It must refer to a relative organization file. r Is the direct access record number. It cannot be less than one or greater than the number of records defined for the file. s Is the label of the executable statement that receives control if an error occurs. ios Is an integer variable or integer array element that is defined as a positive integer if an error occurs, and as a zero if no error occurs.
