Hi Bruce,

What are you trying to replace if a record is not found via seek. You would probably be at the EOF() if the seek is unsucessful. Are you missing an APPEND BLANK?

>And the but is that the REPLACES before the ELSE work but those after the ELSE don't. It is entering the correct section based on whether I enter a stocked item or not.
