John,
 
I followed  your example it add the member JUNK to the pds and I was able to 
browse the member JUNK which has the X in it.  However, the rest of the members 
still give the I/O error.  I know that am sounding thick however I am not sure 
as to what I should do for the other members.  Could you give me an example?

The "X" is just junk instream data to put into the member JUNK. What it is 
doesn't matter. I just put it there for completeness.
