I thought that SET PRODUCT would be a bit more flexible than just the sin gle GATEWAY value that I am currently using.
I also hope that IBM (Chuckie in particular) will not frown upon us using the SET PRODUCT commands for enabling/disabling customer functions. Maybe if the documentation (unoffical fiction as it is) were to make its way into some customer's hands, a requirement could be written that matches fairly well and then be submitted to the appropriate User Groups. /Tom Kern /301-903-2211 On Thu, 4 Oct 2007 12:37:52 -0400, Alan Altmark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >It seems something worthy of requirement.
