A: Delete the last line in the .LIS file thru an editor or this can be automated with CALL SYSTEM USING command which would execute the following SQR code. This program reads an ascii file, removes the last line (the line having the Form Feed) from it and writes the output to another ascii file.

---------------------------- Example code begins here ------------------------
#define record-length 400
begin-report
	input $finp type=char
	input $foutp type=char
	open $finp as 1 for-reading record={record-length} status=#stat
	if #stat != 0
		stop
	end-if
	open $foutp as 2 for-writing record={record-length} status=#stat
	if #stat != 0
		stop
	end-if
	read 1 into $record:{record-length}
	while 1
	  move $record to $previous_record
	  read 1 into $record:{record-length}
	  if #end-file
		break
	  end-if
	  write 2 from $previous_record
	end-while
	close 1
	close 2
end-report
