Like I said, I have not looked at JZOS for the past 2 years, but I was not able 
to run the supplied sample classes with
64 bit java. I will re-download them and try again.

the data from a JAVA program? - JZOS question

The ZipDatasets sample program works fine with the 64-bit SDK.
The JZOS toolkit class library (and native code) in included in the 64-bit SDKs.

I don't know what problem that you were having, but it sounds like a CLASSPATH 
problem with using the sample classes, which are not included in the SDK unless 
you download them.
