Forgive my ignorance, but we're not at 1.9 and I would like to browse an ASCII file, so could you elucidate on the following: I think the display by CCSID (or acronyms like UTF8 / ASCII) has been around since z/OS 1.7. Cheers, Vern.

good remembering something when I see something and say COOL to myself. I can browse the file in the ISPF shell, it's the translation part I'm missing. Neal Well, REVIEW has had ASCII browsing for 21 years - were you thinking of that? Probably not.:-D Admittedly, UNIX file browsing

If you are using z/OS prior to 1.9, you can use some handy shell scripts that we built for handling the conversion. Included in these is aobrowse, which can be used from an OMVS session. See the updated atools package download from: http://dovetail.com/downloads/jzos/index.html Kirk Wolf
