I don't look for zAAP information on anything. "The mainframe is going away" is the mantra and nothing that I have done in the past can even get the attention of management. They simply don't seem to want to be bothered with the System z in any manner. If I had a zAAP, I would likely write my own Java program to do the zipping. That way, I could use JZOS's ZFile to read and write legacy datasets directly. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
