Quick & dirty method. Low level file handling. Write out header directly to a new file, then simply read in all lines from current file and append to new file. That would do it.

The table it is being generated from is a mix of character and numeric fields... The only issue I have is that they wnat the fields names to make up the first record. My original throught was to build a separate table with the fields names entered in the record (one record) and then append from my file. This would put the field names up top and the rest of the data after that. Am concerned about adding the previously numeric fields as a character field. Any suggestions?
