Hi Tom, I did look up the SMPPTS description, before replying to Kurt's answer. It didn't specifically say you can't open a concatenation for output (although that makes sense), but it did mention this:
" Do not concatenate SMPPTS data sets. If you need multiple data sets for the SMPPTS, use SMPPTS spill data sets."
