Re: BPXWDYN documentation without FTP
Bill I assume your company allows http! > According to my Google's ... First IBM Systems > System z > Operating systems > z/OS Internet Library http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/bkserv/ then pick your (version/)release under ◦ Publication titles, filenames, and order numbers by z/OS release, say V1R13 http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/bkserv/zshelves13.html#zbop Then enter the keyword of interest, say BPXWDYN, in the "Search text" box under z/OS V1R13.0 Base Elements Optional Features - 448 books You will be offered 9 manuals with relevant "hits" such as 6.0 BPXWDYN: a text interface to dynamic allocation and dynamic output http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/bpxzb6a0/6.0?ACTION=MATCHES&REQUEST=BPXWDYN&TYPE=FUZZY&SHELF=EZ2ZO213.bks&DT=20100628090654&CASE=&searchTopic=TOPIC&searchText=TEXT&searchIndex=INDEX&rank=RANK&ScrollTOP=FIRSTHIT#FIRSTHIT in each. Note I've deliberately left all the garbage in the URL which shows how we got here. It is just what appears before the "?" which is really needed. On review I noticed the "FUZZY" in the garbage. I *think* I may need to exploit what that suggests in future - thanks for pointing it out! - A "trick" which may be of interest - or conceivably not! - is possible with the URL after you have selected the release, If you want another release - especially if you want to perform a binary search on what was said when a relatively new function was introduced - it takes all sorts! - you need only "adjust" the release number in this URL.

Re: BPXWDYN documentation without FTP
I use BPXWDYN and unfortunately found that Google wasnt the 'end all' to finding where the doc lived. I think , if memory servers(shades of StarTrek) it pointed to USS at IBM...

If FTP is forbidden, then presumably someone has made the publications available on your network. It's hard to believe that there is no available documentation.

Re: BPXWDYN documentation without FTP
The official z/OS Internet library does not require using FTP.

BPXWDYN documentation without FTP
