That I didn't tell you was they created (not through dynamic but
through some other path (old TSO I'd guess) so their naming
"standards" was their own which was not a && type situation) it
looked like one but they never fully converted to the "new" temp
naming stards that went into effect in Y2K. (4 digit year I think).

In the ACS routines you usually test for &DSTYPE=TEMP, rather than
a system

The issue in TMP is that some software vendors use && type
datasets as

you can
argue with them for years and they won't budget. These vendors are
nightmares and a half.
