>thanks >mace Mace, I recently did just what you are wanting to do. I used an old utility (UDACS) to dump the first files from the tape to show what was really on the HDR1 label. And since tape lables only contain the last 17 characters of the file name, as long as you get those right, you can put your own hlq in the JCL when you reference it. Mine were: OS120079.VD9ECAT on vol M079AB OS120079.VD9ESY1 on vol M079AC OS120079.VD9ESY2 on vol M079AD Dana ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
