Albert Pierre runs this code over several libraries every weekend. He then repeats the code for the libraries for the next vendor making sure that the user on the SBMJOB has the proper authorities. He also changes the file name in each CL. On Monday he has the file size data from the weekend run and automatically pushes it into a spreadsheet, which lets him track file growth. >> CLICK here to view the full tip... http://search400.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid3_gci841560,00.html =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 5250 EMULATION PORT | Forum advice: Search400 "Jwilli" wonders what port the 5250 emulation session comes in on for the iSeries.

Should the school be in the Poison Ivy League? The answer depends on if you believe Yale. The Connecticut university has accused Princeton of breaking into its admissions Web site. What was it after? Yale says the Princeton perps wanted to know which high school kids got into Yale and which ones got shot down. This intrigue sounds like something for the drama department -- not the admissions department. Princeton isn't admitting anything, although the school has suspended a dean of admissions. The FBI is investigating. Maybe this case belongs in the law school.
