After all these years I learned something new about the DUPTAP command.

There's a TOSEQNBR parm where you can say TOSEQNBR(*END) and it will
add to the end of the destination tape. I have a number of archive
tapes I decided to consolidate and that will make my life easier.

Since I learned something new, I can go home now. :)
