I'm almost sorry I brought this up. The particular programmer who complained about "it always worked before" consistantly uses that. If the program ever runs once to good EOJ, then the program is good and any subsequent failures are because something else changed. He even agreed that testing for 97 was a good idea, BUT still insisted that the program was OK as is because "it never failed in the past."
Oh, and the "transparency" of going to a basic sysplex from a monoplex was never said by Tech Services. The apps manager was the one who tooting that horn. I rarely say anything is "transparent". Even installing a PTF can cause an outage due to (1) a bad PTF; (2) the closing of a "hole"; (3) the phase of the moon. -- 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.
