Dale -

Yes, that is indeed true but since I am not really well versed in REXX (I still 
write my CLISTs the old-fashioned way), I went with what I knew when making my 
suggestion.

not necessary. REXX will do just fine. I put together a suite of tools  
we used in cloning systems which facilitated catalog  
cloning,synchronizing, etc. No Assembler was needed. Truth be told,  
I'm probably less competent in REXX than in Assembler, but this was  
well-worth doing.
The similar SMP/E tool appears to actually require Assembler, and I  
had plans to do wonderful things with it, but my disgust for corporate  
politics led to my retirement before I got the "round tuit".
