Note
There is a limitation to this program. If the user specifies 10 recordsfor backup at a time, then the first 10 records are updated first inthe internal table and in the user specific temporary sequential file.In case the system terminates abnormally while updating, for exampleafter the sixth record, then the 6 records will be marked as updated.But the corresponding data in the old address format will be missingfrom the user specific temporary sequential file and consequently fromthe main temporary sequential file, even after the consolidationprogram is executed.
