Hi,

I was asked how to read the last record of a sequential file.There are 2 possibilities:

1) The last record is an end of file thereby we can't read the last record.
2) If he means to say that the last record before EOF then is there any other way except to read all the records sequentially.

Regards,
Rahul

Hello,

You read the records sequentially from the front.
