You could do: PATH='/u/&RACUID/file.name.ext' And JCL will substitute your RACF id for &RACUID. This does not help me because I would need &RACUID in __lower case__ because that's how I do the UNIX home subdirectories. Before automount, when I had a "hard coded" /u subdirectory, I would have symlinks of upper case RACF id to the lower case directory name. But I can't do that, as best as I can tell, since I went to automount of /u. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
