only 1st record ..then what i have to do?.. it will not

3. why open extend is not possible in rrds vsam file?
Answer Posted / ajit
Deletion in ESDS can be done programatically. An indicator
bit can be set for the deleted record and those can be
escaped while reading.
Other way to replace the record with spaces.
I think OPEN EXTEND is possible in RRDS.
