> And to answer Walts suggestion, no we can't have the COBOL program invoked from IKJEFT01 as that part of the architecture is carved in stone.
Which is more important? The business need? Or, the architecture? The architecture should never exclude a solution to the problem at hand. This kind of issue is why IT gets a bad name from the business side of the organisation. I'm not saying that Walt's solution is the right one, but if it becomes the one to be used, the architecture should NEVER get in the way of the business! - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
