In our case with emulated 3380 and Adabas the customer opted to run unsupported since they told us they would be off the mainframe in the 2nd quarter of 1997. Most of their work was migrated off last year, July, except one application that is still in inquiry mode only. I still see TSO and batch usage from time to time. I guess you call it the 10 year plan, I don't even ask anymore.

Yes, I mean it. AFAIR 3390 was introduced in 1990. 17 years ago. Enough time to perform migration. All the shops I know use 3380 without any real reason. For example they use Adabas, however other shops, running the same application migrated to 3390 years ago. Another examples: JES2 SPOOL, RACF db. No comments. Of course my experience is limited, that's why I didn't say "in every case"; YMMV Regards -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
