So what your saying is the the LOCATE/CAMLIST macros (and others I suppose) never even look at the Vxx part of the DSN. Your usage of it is interesting, never thought of it myself, but lord knows I could have used it! Thank You, Joe Aulph, Senior Systems Programmer: 850-487-8945 [email protected]
They look at and use it. It is just that when you catalog a GxxxxVyy it will replace an existent GxxxxVyy entry. The Vyy is the Version Number of the Gxxxx dataset (allowing you to replace it up to 99 times). There can be only one version of each generation. To do this you must use an Absolute Dataset Name (GDGBASE.GxxxxVyy) not the GDGBASE(x) Relative type name.
