>>> Is there a batch method to UNNUM all members in a list of PDS's?
I guess you would have to write an EDIT macro.
Then write a REXX exec to invoke that macro for each member

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I know that. My question was in hope that there might be some editor 
setting which keeps anything past a specific column as static, thereby 
mimicking the behavior of ISPF's editor.

Legacy code is many source members in many PDS's. But that bring up another 
question: Is there a batch method to UNNUM all members in a list of PDS's?

As you can read, I am ready to kiss them goodbye.
