GSAM has a DSORG=PS. The manual tells us:

Quote:
An IMS? program can retrieve records and add records to the end of the GSAM database, but the program cannot delete or replace records in the database.


For detailled information on GSAM check this out.

PS: next time try some searching (i.e Google) first before posting icon_idea.gif
