Re: Large Number of deleted records delaying EOF on a read?

Deleted records:

Well - with the quoted part I just ment that I liked 'arrival sequence'
really means arrival sequence.

But in the unquoted part of my original message I refered to a
TAATOOL-command. This command was included in V3R1M0 but removed
afterwards. It might have the name "PRTDLTRCD". I do not have any utility
derieved from "PRTDLTRCD" at my AS/400 right here, but the technique was
quite simple: SAVOBJ <physical file> to *SAVF. Then break the saved file
into pieces corresponding to one byte marking deleted/non-deleted + one
physical record (today this is easier with the CPYxxxSTMF-command).
