Before we converted to all KSAM NM files, we used the contributed utility(?)
KSAMRBLD.  Quick and easy; supports Control-Y interface to monitor progress.

Subject: [HP3000-L] KSAM Files (not Native Mode)

I need to set up a procedure to increase the size of KSAM files for a
completely new HP3000 user.  These files are NOT native mode. 
 
So far my solution has been to
1. fcopy the records out of the KSAM file to a flat file 2. Use KSAM Util to
get Key info 3. Purge and Rebuild the file 4. fcopy the records back into
the KSAM file
 
Keep in mind the user has very little knowledge of the 3000 and they do not
have any 3rd party tools like suprtool.   Does a more straight forward way
to complete this task exist?  They do have Cognos (quiz, qtp, Etc.).
