Note that since CICS came from Hursley and the Brits say kicks, then that is the right pronunciation. But it's very irregular since I used to be an IMS sysprog and I always say eye-em-ess and not ims. Lately I have been hearing people say zos while I say Zed Oh Ess and sometimes Zee Oh Ess ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
