I'm guessing a lot of other shops may have the problem we do.
We have programmers who last cracked a DF/SORT manual somewhere around
release 5 (I'm just guessing, so don't call me out on the version number).
They keep copying each other's JCL and sort examples, blissfully aware of
the improvements and utility in the product (especially things like
ICETOOL, named fields, date handling..).
Do you have any materials or good suggestions about how to present all of
the new capabilities to these people? I'm thinking of offering a one day
course on "Everything You Wanted to Know About DF/SORT But Were Too
Clueless To Ask". I am _not_ a DF/SORT expert, but somebody's gotta
provide the training.

If you'd like, we could put together such a class.
Drop me a line off-list.
Kind regards,
