File size problem

royinfo · #1 (**permalink**) 4 Weeks Ago

I'm working on a IBM PC Serveur 325.

I have a sequential file with more than 800000 records. The size of that file is 136755200. I wrote a cobol program (RM cobol) to delete records. Now the file has 180000 records and the size still the same 136755200. What I need to do to decrease the size. (need to save spaces)

Thanks

Alain
