The MCDS is a VSAM KSDS file. Deleting records will not free up space. When was the last time you re-org'd it? What is the freespace parameter? The folks at Mainstar recommend freespace(50 50) to minimize CI and CA splits.

I understand that I can Use FIXCDS to delete old or obsolete records. The problem is I do not understand how to code. If any one has done this before, could you share the code. thanks, JUdy Ellis ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
