Using KSAM and MPE

Using MPE Files

Adding Records

Adding a record to an MPE ﬁle uses the same verb and syntax as does adding a record to

an IMAGE dataset or a KSAM ﬁle. We have the option of using LIST with DATA or just

using PROMPT alone.

Figure 4-5. Program to Add Data to an MPE File

1 The FILE= option names the MPE ﬁle we are going to access. The default

access is READ. UPDATE provides the most complete update capability to

ﬁles.
