RE: Record count issue

Have you tried using a duplicate of your big file? CRTDUPOBJ or CPYF your 6.5 million record to a different table, reorganize the duplicated table to remove deleted records (CPYF will do this for you) and then do your file splitting.

The file is first cleared using the sql delete from statement. It is then populated by a SQL insert statement.

I then split that file into smaller files of 500,000 records to load into excel.

No records are added, updated or deleted after the initial insert.

I have used SQL to split the table into 500K files splitting the
file by RRN.

The big file has 435,802 delete records. We use the re-use of
deleted record space.

Darryl,

The question that must be asked to determine the answer; Is the
deletion of records from the file, a normal part of the operations
there? If so, the file must be in a quiescent state for this method to work.
