That number caught my eye. The RDW is 4 less than 16448 - which is X'4040'. An inadvertent move of spaces might be the culprit somewhere.

So yes, if you look you might see the next record(s). You might also get an 0C4 if none are present. If it hurst don't do it. 2) the s002 and the RDW of 16444 means there are record(s) longer than 1504 (4 for RDW plus 1500) and/or less than 63 (4 for RDW plus 59).
