ServerPac is the answer. It is dumbing down the field. You did mention looking at the apply, well here I am again stating if the newer people are not looking at the JCL, they are submitting they are certainly not looking at the output. Until it fails. As long as it works, submit and max return code 0 are all they believe they need to know. Sadly, I know a few people with years of experience who can not do much more than this. I have my own issues with Serverpac and post installation dialogs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
