STOPAFT is indeed the right one... STARTREC and ENDREC are OUTFIL statements and therefore "downstream" from where the file is read. (I'm sure Frank will correct my terminology in a few hours' / days' time.) :-)
STOPAFT is "upstream" and so the reads don't take place once the STOPAFT value has been reached.
