Having LRECL change does not imply that every record will change to that length. The LRECL of a V format file it the length of the longest record written. There may be only one record of length 256 in your example.

Howard, Even if you clear the EREP file, or erase it, then once EREP start accumulating data in XAEREPIO RECORD on his A disk, the records are variable length and will start to grow in length. For example, if I clear EREP, the max record size usually start s out at 114, then will grow to Max of 256 in my shop.
