And then you'll probably find some shop where they have their own version of IEFBR14 that actually does process the data set in some way before it terminates. Or where another vendor has put some kind of front-end on IEFBR14 to do something. Also, I hope you'd want at least DISP=(OLD,DELETE) or DISP=(MOD,DELETE). I don't think I'd want existing data sets being deleted when referred to by a DISP=NEW allocation like that. -- 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
