Gregg: Not close, I am right on target. What is called CICS/TS on z/OS, OS/390 and VSE/ESA is called TXSeries on AIX and Windows. TXSeries is a follow-on to the Encina product from Transarc (now the IBM Pittsburgh Lab) and the IBM CICS/AIX product. TXSeries used to support Solaris and I believe HP-UX, but according to the web page, the current version does only supports Win/NT-2K and AIX. CICS is also part of the OS/400 op sys. Regards, Jim
