the record is written to the current file position as specified by the random record and record size fields of the FCB
the file position is not updated after writing the record
if the record is located beyond the end of the file, the file is extended but the intervening data remains uninitialized
if the record only partially fills a disk sector, it is copied to a DOS disk buffer to be written out to disk at a later time
