I am building a file for ETL.


I stuck a seq # key on the front of the record (with duplicates).

First, I populate the file with any customer record which was changed today - from the journal record - using a TAATOOL.

The seq # key is zero for all these new adds.

Next I come thru with a COBOL pgm and update the CUST records with current data.

When I try to rewrite record - after changing the seq#, I receive error 21 - OS is stating I cannot change key if dup keys are allowed.

I need to change the key from zero to a seq # for downstream processing - how can I get around this?

I don't want to add another file in between to accomplish.

Thanks!
