All, I apologize for my tounge in cheek response. Z,
Do the following: 1. Get a big stick. 2. Wait for the DBA to approach and ask his daily question. 3. Use big stick, not to hard, just to get the DBA's attention. I could not do it at my shop, they frown upon that. 4. Tell him 1, One, Uno, Ich.... Per job, while you can have multiple jobs in one job stream, jes will break it up for you. So it depends on how much stress your system can handle. 5. Use big stick, not to hard, just to get the DBA's attention and insure he remembers your answer. 6. Repeat steps 1 - 5 as needed until the DBA is satisified with your answers. HTH ;-) Thanks, Fletch ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
