-----Original Message----- Clark Kidd I remember they made some small silver adhesive squares that could be placed over a hole so that it wouldn't be read. I have seen some very large programs (object decks of 1000+ cards) that were patched this way rather than recompiling the program and wasting CPU time and punched cards. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
