Well, I have done this by doing a T PROG=xx to respecify the entire LNKLST concatenation. Doing the renames as you have could result in a problem. Not guaranteed to cause a problem, but not guaranteed to not cause a problem either. It is a lottery. Usually, I change the IPL linklst to point to the new dataset and then do the dynamic LNKLST update. I just live with the fact that the name of the DSN changed. -- 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.
