Thanks. Too bad our tape operators tend to get the "deer in the head lights" look when you try to "talk techie" to them. I cannot blame them, tho. We are planning to eliminate the position of tape operator completely (ATL + VTS replacing them). All the current tape operators will be print operators only (they are "dual purpose" right now), so nobody will be "let go" (like people were trying to get away?). -- 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.
