Hmmm - wonder why it took them so long to figure that out.
Been that way since decent search engines appeared - I was stoked when I

Speaking as a developer. A few years back we used to pass all new (or
troublesome) queries through Visual Explain. We LOVED it. It dramatically
improved our ability to tune queries before we implemented them.
Then our internal software police took Visual Explain away from us and made

I fail to see why you would expect an abend if the member was being edited in
ISPF when it was deleted in batch. My expectation was that the batch delete
would work fine and that user performing the ISPF edit would not notice any

I would expect the following to happen:

Ah - OK. Somewhere back in the mists of time I was once aware that the Edit
SAVE only enqueued the PDS momentarily, but I failed to recall that fact when

So the abend concern is only if the ISPF Edit SAVE occurred at the same

I agree with Skip Robertson. EDIT PACK is probably on. This not something

at the MEMBER level, not the dataset level. I.E. You can have just one member

But doesn't line 2 set MYSYM to 'INITVAL'?
