Actually, it was in the z/VM V5.1 announcement. Product packaging modifications for z/VM V5.1
The 3270 PC File Transfer product (5664-281), previously orderable the z/VM V4 System Delivery Option (SDO), is now available as part of z/VM V5 product. It is shipped as a sample program on the system with no support available. This was the total reference to IND$FILE in the z/VM 5.1 announcement. There was no statement that it would not be included in future releases. Also, IND$FILE has been out of service since 2003-01-31 so there is no support whether or not it was included as a "sample" program with z/VM V5. Jim
