I reference B.DATA.SET and so the system goes to the catalog that B directs it to. In that catalog, it finds no record for B.DATA.SET (because the ALIAS record is in the catalog for A). Having found no record for B.DATA.SET, the system has no idea that it's an alias, nor any clue which other catalog it ought to look in. The only way it could work would be to change the base functionality so the ALIAS record could go in B's catalog, and I doubt that would happen at this late date. -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
