Thanks Ron.. What a "Breath of fresh air".....
I started to think that most of the people still in the mainframe World are "mental"..
Received an email from my Kiwi friend working in NYC yesterday and all the people in his team, about 15 of them, had "funny" last names, implying that he was the only one left in his team with mainframe skills.
Note: That is why I asked the question about the IBM results too ( For that IBM'er sitting in a dark IBM cubicle some where... Please test your Lotus out office message on your Home computer)
Thanks again and enjoy the Olympics ( I stopped watching it last night but will watch the Parade of Nations on the DVR today )

Anton, For non-SMS, if you open and write to the dataset it can extend to up to 59 volumes. The unit count is not persistent across job and job steps, so once you close it you are stuck with the number of volumes you had at close. If you allocate the file without opening it (eg IEFBR14) then you get just one volume.
