Updating an Indexed File Randomly

Updating indexed records in random access mode involves the following:
1. Specifying ORGANIZATION IS INDEXED in the Environment Division
SELECT clause
2. Specifying ACCESS MODE IS RANDOM in the Environment Division
SELECT clause
3. Opening the file for I-O
4. Initializing the RECORD KEY or ALTERNATE RECORD KEY data name
5. Writing, rewriting, or deleting records using the INVALID KEY phrase
You do not need to first read a record to update or delete it. If the primary or
alternate key you specify allows duplicates, only the first occurrence of a record
with a matching value will be updated.
