Re: Updating Records

Douglas, hit F4 to prompt on the F spec and add an 'A' to the File 
Addition Position.
This will let you 'Add' records to the file.

I have a program that I am trying to write and I have made some progress
with this, but now I have run into something of which I am not sure how
to handle.

I have an F spec for a file as an INPUT file....so I can read some
records from it.  When I try to define it as an Output file the compiler
burps and throws a fit LOL

Since I need to both write new records to this file and still be able to
read it from within the same program can someone make a suggestion on
how to handle this for me?

Thanks,

Douglas
