I believe that the presence of "nonvsam" on the command requires a recall so that IDCAMS can verify that it's a nonvsam entry (it can't tell that while the data set is migrated). I believe you'll find that if you had a VSAM file, and issued a DELETE ... NONVSAM against it that the delete would fail. Thus, with a migrated data set IDCAMS needs it recalled or it might mistakenly delete a migrated VSAM data set. -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
