As a side note. When using File-Aid MVS, you have the ability, within the
selection criteria options panel to skip and/or select the number of records
you want/don't want. (there are a number of additional options you can also use
at the same time i.e. stop after certain number of records, start the process
from the last record and con't backwards etc.) Without the manual coding of
parameters within some JCL.
If you have any more questions feel free in

Subject: Re: FILEAID : UNABLE TO EDIT (DELETE PORTIONS) LARGE FILE
You are creating a subset of the original file starting SKIP records in for
COUNT records. If you use this method be sure you get your SKIPs and COUNTs
right or you may drop or duplicate records. You would also have to create two
more files, one for the SKIP records for the front end and one for the
SKIP(SKIP+COUNT) for the back end of the file. A little messy but it works.

Hi Peter,
Just curious, the COUNT PARM you have included what does that do? I have
usually used only the SKIP command.
"Hunkeler Peter
If increasing the region size doesn't help, try IDCAMS:
REPRO IDS(indsn) ODS(outdsn) SKIP(nnnn) COUNT(cccc)
You may need to run it multiple times if you need to delete in the middle of
the data set.
