Subject: adding a single record from command line

I have a 'temp' file that I import from a client, then do misc processing on
it and then copy all these records to a duplicate file for archive purposes.
I delete them from the original 'temp' file after I copy them to the archive
file.

Since the only time I get records to add to this 'temp' file are in the form
of a file I receive from a client, I run -K to delete all the 'blank'
records to keep this 'temp' file
from growing with a bunch of 'empty' records, etc.
As you know, there must be at least 1 record in a filePro file in order to
do an 'import' to it.....so is there a built in command to add one record to
a file that has no records in it currently?

I guess I could write a simple output processing to do this for me, just
didn't know if there was a command I was unfamiliar with to simply add 1
blank record to a file


Thanks

Scott
