Gee, who in the first place decided to use numeric userids, possibly supported by ACF2, but not by the rest of MVS? Sounds like allowing Syncsort options and then return to DFSORT, or allow PDSFAST options and then return to IEBCOPY or...
If you did already prefix the userid with an Alpha character, can't you definitely change the userid to that prefixed value? It won't make any difference for the datasets, only the users have to get used to their 'new' userid, which they already know from their datasets? Kees.
