And the HASP designers never anticipated the needs of SDSF. But SDSF is now here and indispensable, so it must be able to impose new requirements for usability on JES2 and JES3.

Or do I fail to understand? Was the numbering continued from job to job, so if one job ended with DSID 42 the next would begin with DSID 43? -- gil -- StorageTek INFORMATION made POWERFUL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
