Willie, do you have your syntax backwards? You are looking to backup older datasets, right? The way I read the syntax (and I could very well be wrong here) is you're saying by
BY(CREDT,GE,(*,-3))) Is if the create date is greater or equal to 3 days ago select it. If you want datasets that were created 3 or more days ago, wouldn't you need to use LE instead of GE? In your TYPRUN=NORUN job, do you see any datasets with create dates older than 3 days ago or just current ones?

What I would like to know that the parm CREDT,GE,(*,-3) would select dsn that were created 3 days and over. The NORUN indicates that the parm is incorrect because the job selected dsns that were created on April 28. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
