Well, you can certainly free the existing file and descriptor and allocate new ones.
If I understand you right, I should deallocate the output-file (DD) and the OUTPUT-Statement and then re-allocate new ones?!? But then I need to get *ALL* information about the both - right?
Or you can internally issue $TO
I guess I need APF-authorization for this? That's a no-go for me....
