I want to set up an environment that supports personal tools. I'd like to allow the users to create VB libraries, but if there is no way to retain ALTLIB and LIBDEF across START (ISPSTRT) then I'll stick to FB and reconcatenate.
Performance is not an issue because the code would only run immediately after logon. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

Is there a simple way to do that in REXX, or would it be better to write a small service routine in assembler? :>I don't have a requirement to handle XTIOT. The elephant in the room - why? Perhaps there is a better way to do what you want. As you are worried about performance, it appears to be something that will need to run quite often.
