I think it changed in 1.7 (we skipped that release). You can change it via SETTINGS >> Log/List >>List Data set characteristics It can also be changed globally with ISPCCONF utility, but this only affects new profiles (LIST_LOGICAL_RECORD_LENGTH). Unfortunately, IBM did not supply a "reset" ala "RESET_LIST_LOGICAL_RECORD_LENGTH" like some other settings. :-( Mark -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group: G-ITO mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] z/OS and OS390 expert at http://searchDataCenter.com/ateExperts/ Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.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
