Hello,

one customer requires us to ftp a file with header/footer records, so he 
can see if the transfer
is complete.

What is the easiest way to insert a record at *top* of a physical file 
(without keys). Manually,
I create an empty file with a header record, then copy the actual file 
with *add, and then do the
footer record.

Any other way?

Regards,

Oliver
