Agree, however, it took me less than 2 minutes to add the code for FIELD
card.

I was responding to the original, however, here's the extra code,

OUT2.I = 'RPT FIELD,TABLE,'||Dbname|| VERSION
SAY REC.I
SAY OUT.I
SAY OUT2.I
D
"EXECIO * DISKW  OFILE    (STEM OUT. FINIS "
"EXECIO * DISKW  OFILE    (STEM OUT2. FINIS "

Adding a return code for an empty file is also trivial.
