At least for z/OS it's documented. I can't speak for z/VSE.

        Thanks.  I already had an argument buffer for the RPL and I do use
it for direct processing.  I didn't think it had anything to do with
sequential processing, though.  But, I decided to experiment and
"discovered" that VSAM places the RRN back in the RPL argument buffer for
the last record read.


Sincerely,
