It would be simple to do by customizing one of the IPCS clists. Or just keep them ignorant of it. Why would a "normal" programmer ever want to use IPCS? Ours have a bad enough time trying to use AbendAID! If for any reason they cannot get a symbolic dump (i.e. the source is out of date or some such), then they usually just throw up their hands and declare the problem unresolvable until a listing is available and the program recreated. > > -- > Edward E Jaffe -- 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.
