>TeD, AFAIK standard VSAM limit is 4GB (or 4GiB for purists). You're right. Having been out of direct involvement for awhile. After being downsized and then moving to an outsourcer's customer, I forgot.
IBM did the no-brainer of using all the bits in a word to double the maximum size of a non-EF VSAM file 'overnight'. This changed it from 2 to 4 GB by using all 32 bits. I forget when they did it. - -teD I’m an enthusiastic proselytiser of the universal panacea I believe in! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
