As you can tell from my previous post I am neither an SMP/E expert nor an SMP/E fan but I think you can have two BANANAs provided they are different kinds of things. Going into different destinations (target PDS) is not enough, they have to be different kinds of things: TEXTENU, SAMPENU, etc. You can't have two different SAMPENUs named BANANA, even in different RELFILEs, but you can have a TEXTENU named BANANA and a SAMPENU named BANANA.
Obscure and arcane.

So if you have a sample program called BANANA and quite reasonably wanted to have a .JCL library with a sample job to run it called BANANA, and the source in a .SOURCE library also called BANANA, you can't do that. Seems kind of primitive in this day and age, especially when you're forced to work with eight-byte names! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
