Given the death of source code and PLMs (Program Logic Manuals), you are likely never going to find out everything that some auditor might want. However, you might find the following manuals somewhat helpful: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA2V260/CCON TENTS http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA2E460/CCON TENTS http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/CEEA3160/CCON TENTS http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/BPXZB160/CCON TENTS But they are unlikely to help with obscure modules, such as IGDZILLA <grin>. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
