Re: wildcard utilities

I really think I'm trying to make this more complicated than it is, but Barry's idea wasn't what I was looking for either. I'm not looking for a listing of the incoming datasets for any other reason than to know what to print out each day. The print I'm looking for is the internals of all the

removing a mgmtclas

We are wanting to remove some mgmtclas routines, but not sure how that will affect datasets that are still out there under that name ? We are not just deleting the routines, but also the definition themselves. Will this have an adverse affect on datasets that are still out there, or will

Re: removing a mgmtclas

Thanks for the response. What we want to know is what happens to the datasets that have a mgmtclas that no longer exists ? Will that cause any problems or error messages ? -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access
