== Why is this an issue?

A results indicator should be used on a ``++CHAIN++`` statement because it leads to cleaner, more readable, and more correct code. Using an indicator results in the conditions ``++record not found++``, and ``++end of file++`` being automatically handled correctly, without the need for further error handling.
