MPEX is not part of the FOS. MPEX is a Third Party solution. I could not
imagine being without it until I took my current position and am without it.
There only good thing about not having MPEX is that it teaches you what MPE
can do.

Here is a way to expand a KSAM file without MPEX.
For KSAM/3000 (Compatibility Mode)
1. :FCOPY FROM=KSAMFILE;TO=HOLDFILE;NEW
2. :LISTF KSAMFILE,2
3. In KSAMUTIL:
        a. >VERIFY KSAMFILE (I use 4)
        b. > Purge KSAMFILE
        c. > BUILD KSAMFILE (using specs from verify and new limit)
4. :FCOPY FROM=HOLDFILE;TO=KSAMFILE

For KSAM XL (Native Mode)
1. :FCOPY FROM=KSAMFILE;TO=HOLDFILE;NEW
2. :LISTF KSAMFILE,2
3. :LISTF KSAMFILE,7 (This shows the KSAM values)
4. :PURGE KSAMFILE
5. :BUILD KSAMFILE (using specs from verify and new limit)
6. :FCOPY FROM=HOLDFILE;TO=KSAMFILE

This may be a complicated process but its the best one I know. I hope this
helps.

        I'm trying to add another file to my copy libraries.  COBEDIT exits
with an error before completing.  Checking with KSAMUTIL shows that the
number of records = EOF.  How do I expand this file to allow for more
records?

        TIA
