    Desired Outcome Goal:
    *Know if the ADM keys are still synchronized with the BIB keys

    Procedure:

    * Edit util g/2
    * Note the value of the "last-doc-number" parameter
    * Connect to xxx50
    * Call util f/4
    * Enter file name "doc"
    * Enter the doc number you noted for xxx01
    * In the ADM record showed look at the LKR field
    * if the record number present in subfield b is the same as the xxx01 "last-doc-number", then ADM keys are synchronized with the BIB keys
