    Description:
    I ran p_ret_01 in the xxx60 library, checking for 852 field $$cBRFRL.

    A collection code search for BRFRL in the GUI retrieves 138 records.

    I got only one HOL record number from those 138.

    I should have gotten 138 HOL record numbers.

    Resolution:
    The "tag" parameter ("setenv p_code") is a 5-character parameter.

    The 4th position is the first indicator; the 5th position, the second indicator.

    You are specifying "852 " as the value. This means that in order to be retrieved the 852 field must have a blank first indicator and a blank second indicator.

    To retrieve all 852 fields, regardless of their indicator values, you must specify "852##".
