I believe that a radical restructuring of a load module represents a strong case for ++DELETE and re-add of the affected element. Some changes are too disruptive to handle via update. Of course a delete is also disruptive and invariably accompanied by HOLD data to the effect that the PTF cannot be RESTOREd.

Does this happen when SYSMOD-A delivers a new ++MOD element and SYSMOD-B delivers ++JCLIN adding that ++MOD element to an existing load module? -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
