Insertion at the current line number

Lines are inserted starting at the current line number. The line numbers of the other lines that are to be inserted are determined by adding the current increment to the line number of each last inserted line. Any lines with the same line numbers present in the target file are overwritten. The new, current line number is then the line number of the last newly inserted line plus the current increment.

The following table indicates the EDT statements for which this procedure is used (in the case of some EDT statements, other procedures may be used in the event of a different format or different operands).

Statement	Comments on operands	General comments
L mode data entry		This not only relates to input at the L mode prompt but also to data inputs in EDT procedures and via the text operand of some L mode statements.
@GET	No operand specification NORESEQ
@GETLIST
@ON Format 4 + 5	No KEEP operation specified but OLD operand specified
@OPEN Format 2	Open a copy of SAM files without specifying the KEY operand	The work file must be empty before the statement is executed. This is the case after EDT is started or after an explicit deletion. In both cases, the current line number and the current increment are both 1.0000. However, it is possible to set a new current line number and a new current increment before executing the statement.
@READ	Without specification of the KEY operand
