I concur with Liliane. T RESET will reset the offset to that which was in effect from the CLOCKnn member which was read at IPL time. Depending on your level of z/OS and PTF level, there is a new T TIMEZONE= which can set the timezone offset instead of setting the CLOCK=. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
