You can create the dynamic file with the desired size. >From HELP CREATE.FILE:
MINIMUM.MODULUS n This value is also the initial value of the modulo (sic) of the dynamic file. Best regards, Henry Henry P.

So, if you add a large number of records to a file that's properly sized, it will (potentially) split multiple times as you go along. If I know in advance that I'm adding a large number of records to a file, is there any way to force the file to "grow" in advance? If it were a static file, I'd simply resize it to a new guesstimated modulo. Since it's dynamic, I don't see any way to do this other than to convert it to back to a static file, then resize it to a dynamic file with a minium modulus. It seems as though there must be a better way...
