There is a 16-byte field in the CVT's prefix area, at -24 decimal from the CVT base, which was set aside by IBM decades ago for such a purpose. The field's name is CVTVERID. (FLCCVT-24)->CVTVERID Please let us all know if you ever find any non-blank data in that field from any client site. (I don't expect that you will find that many sites customize that field. I won't be surprised if many on this list are unaware of it.) -- Tom Schmidt
