  How might we delete this little bugger?


SYS1.DFDSS.DEFRAG..........PRD9LF.DUMMY

In the past, I've had luck deleting datasets with "invalid" characters and/or format in two ways:

1. DD statement DISP=(OLD,DELETE) with the DSN within quotes. Remember to code UNIT & VOL. If there are lower case letters, you have to be careful how it's submitted because some techniques will upper-case it "for" you. (Of course, stick it in a jobstep, probably IEFBR14.)

2.  "D" command from ISPF dataset list of a volume.
