writing in a .dat file with Abaqus Subroutines

I am able to write data in a file using:

open(105,file=G:\Program files\Abaqus 11\Temp\subroutine test\isotropic isothermal elasticity\result.dat,position=append,recl=100)

write(105,*) test

close(105)

But everytime I want to rerun my job, i should first delete the content of result.dat and then rerun otherwise the results of the upcoming run would be appended to the existing ones. I added status = replace to the open statement, but abaqus gives an error. Anyidea what I should do?

Thanks
