At the very least there should be a C/C++ PARM= or #pragma option (NOT one of the LE "slash" options) to disable this behavior. (Maybe there is? Someone? I didn't find it.)
I guess I am going to have to implement the workaround of reversing the ridiculous "if-all-uppercase-then-lowercase-it" logic with equally ridiculous "if-all-lowercase-then-uppercase-it" logic. At least that will work for now. I may have to do something more complex in the future. Sheesh!

But TSO should have a REALLYTRULYASIS, as in PROFILE REALLYTRULYASIS, which would disable all case conversion, in all commands and in the content of DSN(*). I'm a big boy; I can find the shift key when I need it. I hate the circumventions necessitated by fradulent case-insensitivity. If there were true case insensitivity, there would be no motive to convert input to upper (or lower) case, possibly overriding the programmer's intent. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
