My bad.
As I've already said, I thought I did it that way.
I checked my code, and, while it empties the entire PDS, it does it a member at
a time.
When I wrote it, I was working at a shop, many years ago, where space was at a
premium, so I didn't want to delete and re-allocate the file.
Instead, I wrote a REXX procedure, that used ISPF LM services to get the member
list, parse it, and call ICAMS with one line of:
"DELETE" mypds || "(" || member.n || ")"
For each member, through an appropriate loop.
I only have a hard copy of the EXEC, since it was a shop without PC's, so no
downloading.
