READING 2 RECS before write to PRINT REC

by jeff@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Aug 21, 2006 at 05:50 AM

I have a program that I wrote that creates a work file to read from to
create a print record. The program is a sales re****t that allows the
user to specify how many years to compare. An example is 07-01-06 thru
07-31-06 If they answer 3 prior years it would show sales data (it also
handles exact day instead of just 070106, 071005, 070104)
20060701
20050702
20040703

20060702
20050703
20040704

When I read the Work file I need to read 2 recs before writing the
print record to calculate the percentage change in amount. Example:
20060701               10%
20050702                7%
20040703
Sales up 10% for 2006 over 2005, sales up 7% 2005 over 2004.

Any ideas on the best way to accomplish this?
