Thanks Neil. It's not to late, I didn't think of this. I am going to give it a try.

Dean: likely too late for your urgency but ... Did you consider simply adding the STORCLAS() DATACLAS() options to the Define Cluster? If you have a pre-existing pool that would suffice, it would not require fiddling with your SCDS & ACS routine just to capture a particular DSN. This will also suffice if you only need, in the short-term, to add a DATACLAS definition to cover Extended Addressing. That would give you time to calmly think through any changes to the ACS routines which can be problematic as they grow. ----------> signature = 6 lines follows <-------------- Neil Duffee, Joe SysProg, U d'Ottawa, Ottawa, Ont, Canada telephone:1 613 562 5800 x4585 fax:1 613 562 5161 mailto:NDuffee of uOttawa.ca http:/ /aix1.uottawa.ca/ ~nduffee "How *do* you plan for something like that?"
