| Use either SHR for appending records at the end of file. |

Have you taken a look in the JCL manual - the anser is there.
In fact it probably took you longer to post this thread than it would have taken you to find the answer yourself. |

| SHR is wrong - but I agree with expat - look it up - this one is easy to find. |

Hello,
Yes, MOD will allow appending to the end of an existing file. If you have an abend, it may not be as simple as merely appending to the end of what was already in the file. This could leave you with more or less than the correct amount of data.
If you are going to restart from some point, you must ensure that everything is back in sync to the restart point. |
