Using z/OS 1.08 
1) Split an ISPF Screen. 
2) Go into the same PDS (not pdse) using option 3.4 in BOTH screens 
3) In one do a "Z" line command to compress the PDS
4) In the other edit to create a new member, put some lines in it and save 
it. 
5) Then try to FTP the new member to your PC.  You will find, that FTP 
cannot find that member.  Swears it does not exist. 
6) If you then get out of the PDS and back in, then FTP finds it. 
        Not exactly a common scenario, but "THIS COULD HAPPEN TO YOU!!!"
