Ted,
SELTAPE=LOWEST is rather obvious as far as favouring low order

default
came later I believe.
Perhaps a senior moment... I can't find anything that supports my
recollection except an old post about NEXT would forget the last drive
allocated after a short period of time.

Ron,
More importantly why did IBM drop the Random option?
I would be interested to hear why and if it was a SHARE type
requirement.
