Hi all,
 
We're having trouble with a real basic job.  When the programmer
combines her stand alone job with one that already exists, the
job stops posting extract records to the file.  This has to be
real simple and I'm just overlooking the answer.
 
The file EXTRACT is opened for OUTPUT in a COBOL program.
These is nothing tricky or out of the ordinary that I have
been able to see.  Any help will be graciously received.
 
Sorry to take up the bandwidth for such a routine problem.
