Hi Susan, Please tell me how to access IBM Knowledge info with IE version 11. I can access them with Mozilla, but not with IE. I prefer to use IE.

To the direct point, it seems like the Adobe Indexed set of element and feature PDFs (SC27-8430) that Kevin Minerley mentioned in his response should suffice, and perhaps even impress, for those of you wanting a single downloadable of all z/OS PDFs. Also, truly consider giving KC4z, which Kevin also mentioned, a try. It provides the option to mix and match the z/OS plug-ins, if that's how you want to do things, for maximum flexibility in an offline, topic search type environment. Take a look through https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.2.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r2.hkc/hkc.htm and see what you think. To an indirect point, it's great to see the different statements in support of PDFs and even the one for KC. I know how much (most of) you miss the old product documentation tools, so this feedback is extremely valuable as we work hard to develop a set of solutions that will hopefully help you eventually forget them. The best thing that you can do is (continue to) voice your feedback where it really counts, like at SHARE and in feedback sessions with IBMers. (Of course, I'm always happy to continue collecting feedback here, if it's your only resource.) To that point, if any of you are willing to let my team bounce ideas off of you, as long as the proper confidentiality boxes are checked, let me know - we'll take you up on it.
