The only issue I have with REXX (which I love using) is that I/O tends to be 
fairly slow, otherwise I would agree that it is the best solution.

I vote for the REXX option. 

Use LISTD after an OUTTRAP to capture  a list of members, DO loop thru the 
list, allocate the dsn/member, readin, add the 2 lines to the end by adding to 
a counter and setting the needed value to the stemvar, and then write back out.
