<snip> So obviously NOS was in your procs. Just out of curiosity, why would you ever specify NOS?
Kind regards, -Steve Comstock Interesting question. The procs were originally set up by BearingPoint when they installed their General Ledger/Accounts Payable application. Since this still is proprietary software, they continue to develop the application. My unit is mainly QA to their development. Until I came in 4 years ago, everything was put into production with their naming conventions due to the fact that no standards had been developed. It is still infuriating to have our DB2 tables named KPMG.table and our production DSNs begin with FAMISP.KPMG. At this point in the game it is very difficult to change. Now, my colleagues and I go over everything with a fine tooth comb. As we go forward, all JCL will be converted to symbolic procs and parms. Currently we are running all in stream JCL and parms. By the way, I took an IBM course on COBOL & LE for MVS, Adv. Programming The Year 2000 (course code N2027) and it has your 1997 copyright on it. Thank you for that too. It has come in very handy over the years.
