If you are creating each file within the FOCUS environment, have you considered a DYNAM to allocate the file as 'new' at the start and then in each successive 'creation' use DYNAM to the file with 'MOD'. In other words, use the capabilities the mainframe gives you for dispostion of files. Can't give you a 'working' example in mainframe world as we no longer have the mainframe version. However, it would be similar in the webFOCUS world of using a FILEDEF to allocate a file the first time and then reallocate the same file with the ( append added for saving or holding the file with a name.
