export ascii & write command

Dennis,

Yes, you can use the "write" in this manner.  But, if you are ending for 
this record and going to the next, (if this is dreport/rreport), the 
write is unnecessary.  The rnx record will be written anyway when you 
issue the "end".

The export file rnx will remain open until all records are processed or 
you issue a "close".

Hope this helps,
