I find it better to use real names, you get better and faster help, but only if the persons have free time to reply at all. There are many people on IBM-MAIN using some other names, like 'Bigendian Smalls', 'retired Mainframer', 'zMan', etc. These persons may have a real and perhaps have enforced rules, regulations and laws prohibiting using real names. Over the years, I learn to trust these people including those 3 persons above and michelbutz based on what they write and how they answer replies. PS: I apologize that I used the names above, but I just want to illustrate my point. No offence meant. About IBMers using real names: Those IBMers are really kind to help out on IBM-MAIN while publishing their own names. I admire and salute them.
