Your probably right that some automated process is used to create the update files. My question is how the updates can be merged in to the main source without something like a line number. The only thing I can think of is it would use a relative record number from the beginning of the file. With a line number in 73-80, I can visually see that the numbers are in sequence. Without a line number, how do you know that the merge of the diff file with the source has it in the correct sequence?
