Steve, Another thought would be (if the right level of z/OS) he could filter the SMF Type 42 records (Subtypes 20 21 24 25 for example) for MEMBERs and maybe find them that way. But I think that he left out a bit of detail on what he was trying to do. I can think of a couple of iterations where these actions would not give him the results he is after.
