It's possible for the application to have a hard-coded DYNALLOC SYSOUT. The provider might have a couple weak rationales for this: o Sparing the user the chore of coding one more JCL statement. o Copy protection -- the belief that SYSOUT is harder to copy to a durable electronic medium. >(3&4) No problem.

This should easily be be possible "[t]hrough the miracle of JCL". But I know various IBM utilities that thwart such flexibility. >restrictions on email line length.

I don't know whether it's separately priced. I don't know whether XMITIP can be configured to employ "jar". -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
