I would use a record Id on the input record and put that on the

Don't condition detail output on LR
The program will then copy what ever is in the input file in your
example.
I would re-write this for you today but I have a tee time quite
soon. If you don't get it done over the weekend I will address it
Monday for you - it's a very simple 36 program.
Also if you are using the cycle you don't need to seton LR
:-) Need vs desire. I thought that my use of LR was going to limit
my output to just one row, per having ended the cycle prematurely; i.e.
my desire was to end the cycle with LR=*ON.
As noted in another reply, after adding the LR conditioning to the
type=Detail-record of the O-spec [whereas originally the LR was coded
only on type=field of the O-spec], _then_ I got the results desired;
i.e. the one row being read, then written [copied], and the cycle
terminating. The effect from that change, that I was no longer
accidentally writing a blank [heading] record; that since, only the
RCDOUT data that I intended to be written, was getting written.
The change of course could have been to move the LR from the field to
the record [vs adding the LR to the record]. The following source shows
that change made to the source found in the OP [to move the LR from
field to record, while also removing all CT Array stuff], which performs
as I desire [irrespective what might be proper coding :-)]:
FS36INP IP F 55 DISK
FS36OUT O F 55 DISK A
I* .1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+.
IS36INP XX
I 1 55 RCDINP
C MOVE RCDINP RCDOUT 55
C SETON LR
O* .1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6
OS36OUT DADD LR
O RCDOUT 55
You are welcome to provide a more conventionally or otherwise more
appropriately coded simple example RPG36 program source for writing a
record to an output file.
I am sufficiently satisfied however, with the above for the "1)
insert" portion of this topic.
I will need to move on the "2) update" of this topic.
