Re: Creating files and then combining them into one PF

Are the layouts all the same? If so you could skip creating a new file and
instead create a view.

create view ALLSALES as (
Select * from sales05
union all
Select * from sales06
union all
Select * from sales07
union all
Select * from sales08
union all
Select * from sales09
union all
Select * from sales10
)

I have the need to create some yearly historical physical files of data,
SALES05, SALES06, SALES07, SALES08, SALES09, SALES10 (the numbers being
the year).
We need the data in all of these files combined into one physical file
called ALLSALES. We have created the previous years files and do not
need to recreate them, 09 and before but we will need to recreate the
current year each night. The problem is the newly recreated 10 file
being combined into the ALLSALES PF.

My questions are:
First is there an easy way to combine all of these files into one PF
besides doing the following - CLRPFM ALLSALES, CPYF SALESxx *ADD to
ALLSALES for each of the files?
Secondly is there an easy way to only add the newly added records to the
ALLSALES from the SALES10 file each night?
Thirdly is there an easy way to do all of this?

Thank you for any and all help,
