out of all the software mentioned, I did not see anyone noting ISC software.
They do have excellent inventory software, If you were to evaluate I highly
recommend looking in to e-Gen suite. I have no affiliation with them, except as
a user of the software.
Ed,
That's who I was talking about, too - people who support and work with their
products.

Greg

Greetings All,
We had CICS for 12-15 years, and along with it several MacKinney products - Hot
Print, Morning News and KwikKey. We don't have CICS anymore, and our MacKinney
products are gone now too. The products worked well, and we did not have any
support problems with MacKinney.

I am surprised a little bit by your attitude and am disappointed in
your suggestion.
I wasn't going to mention it but since you seemed to infer I wasn't
professional I will add:
Another person in the group I was in had a similar issue with them.
The person was happy he didn't have to
I'll have to speak up. We have a number of MacKinney products. We only
had one problem with one of them, about 15 years ago. I worked on that
with them and we fixed it together. It was a race condition in a CICS
product. I won't try to say that the products are the top of the line.
But they work
Mackinney have something called OSXREFS.
*OSXREFS consists of 4 utility programs*
*OSXDSN*, *OSXLINKS*, *OSXSCAN* and *OSXPROC* provide the following
functions:
- Cross-reference datasets and PROCEDURES in a specified JCLLIB/PROCLIB
- Cross-reference Programs and PROCEDURES that execute
they also have something called COBOL Glossary if you want to interrogate
COBOL source.

One day I got a call from the production people about an OC4 (in
LISTCAT) . I looked at it a little and since it was a vendor program
I called up their support line.
AFter a few minutes on the phone I got a not to nice of a response:
DEBUG it yourself
Now I know the product cost very little
After a few minutes of what on the phone? Calling them morons? Questioning
their ancestry?
MacKinney support gets you speaking to a developer far faster most other
vendors I've contacted. Those developers may come across as somewhat defensive
of their products (most everyone tends to
As I said earlier I have no experience of OSXREFS or LISTCAT for that
matter but we do have 2 Mackinney products installed, VTAM Switch and
TRACK. We have used them now for many years and whenever we have needed it
(which has not been very often) the support has been excellent.

My code has indeed been dusted off. What has taken time is going back to the
manual and checking some details. I have some time this week, pray I'm able to
finish this off and send it out within the week.
Thanks

Hi All,
I am being asked if there are relatively simple source-and-JCL inventory
control products available for z/OS. I found one myself (XREF product at
dcmsi.com), but management wants to know if any other software vendors provide
such a product.
We're not interested at the moment in full
We just need a simple inventory control product that could answer interactive
queries (E.G., What JCL uses this file? Where is this program used?) by
programmers and technical support staff.
I asked a related question last November (see the thread entitled Scanning
JES3 JCL). I am wanting to

I think you were asking about more than just JCL inspection. RAA does that
but also much more. There's a trial of RAA available so you can take it for
a spin. Just click on the Trial
