No, that's not true either. This from the previously mentioned ISAM Logiic manual: <quote> The WRITE KN macro instruction is used with the READ KU macro instruction to update variable-length records when the record length can change. The WRITE KN macro instruction allows the user to insert new logical records into the data set or to replace a variable-length logical record with one having the same key and possibly a different record length. </quote> -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
