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.

We are trying to extract a file of 6.5 million records.

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.
