At my last location that's exactly what happended. The guy's that administered 
Racf created a Rexx EXEC to make my steps a little easier, but I was in full 
control.

The reason I'm such a proponent of the DFP segment is because it reduces the 
amount of work I need to do to the ACS routines. At first I was totally against 
the idea, then once I learned the benefits, I was all for it.

Thanks...George

Not necessarily, though.  The RACF administrator can delegate all the DFP
segment authority to the storage administrators.  Then you have the
flexibility of using the DFP segments for the simple cases, but using ACS
routines for more complex cases.  Of course, then the storage administrators
need to learn a little about RACF.
