Why run the process from within the same file at all?
Try running process from a point of refererence file and
instead of using a fixed record number, add a new record
to point of reference file and from here, add all the 
records you need to your target file.

Once all is done, delete the record you were sitting on
and exit process.  

I figure this can be nicely done using *clerk instead of
*report.

Be careful with using 'close' too many times ... I've found
it to cause the now non-existing "Segmentation Violation"
