Yeah we discussed the separate account idea 9we did that at my last job) but here its more difficult and for ,whatever> reason people are against it <sigh>
Your other idea is not bad, but then we would have to change it in any calling programs BUT I suppose that may be the best I can get out of universe. Hopefully there is some super genius lurking around that might have some additional thoughts (I hope) Thanks for the response Dougc -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kritan Sent: Thursday, May 22, 2008 10:14 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] execute code/proc question HELP!!!!!!!! The best would be to have a development account to separate the code. Without that option, the easiest would be to rename the program in DOUG.BP to something a bit different (I.e. DOUG.DEV). compile and catalog the original DOUG in EURO.BP and DOUG.DEV in DOUG.BP. Users could run the original DOUG. When you are done fixing DOUG.DEV, copy it over DOUG in DOUG.BP and recompile.
