If JES2 did everything that JES3 does, it wouldn't be JES2 any more, would it? Am I right in assuming that JES3 costs more than JES2? Doesn't the vendor, then need to provide differentiating features to justify the expense? Of course, it's only human nature to wish that one's only favorite feature were added as an enhancement to the lower priced product. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
