Do you roll out ISV changes with the OS?  We are still running View 2.0,
but I thought that was an enhancement for 11.x - one that I was looking
forward to that I like in other products that manage sysout.  Are you
sure there isn't a command that still lets to do a single "select" 
for all the output?  Other products that split the DDs have that, I would
hope CA-VIEW would too.
