Hey Neil,
We did get the dataset list from FDRABRP and we are working with that. I would have liked to restore all dsn except VSAM, but we are finally making some progress . From your note, it looks like we had some of our control syntax twisted, so will work with your updates in the AM. We only have FDR/FDRDSF, no FDReport.

I am looking for some source > code [snip] Linda : On the Select statement for DSF, you can use NewIndex=NewHLQ to swap hlq's, NULLSTORCLAS to indicate, well, that, plus NVol=(xxx*,xxx*,xxx*) and NOCAT but I can't find a method to select by dataset type ie. Vsam. Unless you can identify a naming convention (from the FdrAbrP listing) that can be used to EXCLUDE DSN=**.VSAM.** or **.DATA, **.INDEX, **.CSI before SELECT Dsn=SYSPROG**. (Remember, you can multi-Exclude hundreds of times before the Select.) However, if you have FDReport, you could try DATA=TVTOC with DSORG.EQ.(PO,PS,...) and PUNCH the necessary SELECT statements for the (subsequent) DSF step. ----------> signature = 6 lines follows <-------------- Neil Duffee, Joe SysProg, U d'Ottawa, Ottawa, Ont, Canada telephone:1 613 562 5800 x4585 fax:1 613 562 5161 mailto:NDuffee of uOttawa.ca http:/ /aix1.uottawa.ca/ ~nduffee "How *do* you plan for something like that?"
