z/OS 2.4, it does not remember shutting those options off. I'm OK with the behavior and could take it either way but I know I'd be recovering user datasets much more often if the "are you sure" wasn't there.

I *think* it remembers the option on the main panel, assuming you actually exit ISPF rather than 622'ing. I *like* the behavior. I don't mind the extra "are you sure?" on a single dataset delete -- has saved my @ss once or twice -- and if I am deleting a bunch, I set it off on the first confirmation panel. I would rather hit an extra enter a hundred times than have to recover a mistakenly deleted dataset once. YMMV. That's what makes horse races.

Couldn't they have made it opt-in rather than opt-out? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN The information contained in this message is confidential, protected from disclosure and may be legally privileged.
