Thanks @Gil, I think you get where I am trying to go with this. It's not that I don't know how to use TESTAUTH or think TESTAUTH is giving me the wrong answer. But now what? We say "one or more of your datasets is apparently not authorized" and the customer says "WE TOLD YOU THEY ARE ALL AUTHORIZED!" Now what does the poor support tech do? Say "Issue a 'D PROG,APF' and check all the libraries -- it's not rocket surgery!"
Would YOU buy a product from a vendor that talked to you like that?

But it would be poor business practice for the OP to address his customer so tactlessly.
