The ones that I was thinking of were "senior" people with years of experience. I certainly don't mind answering questions from newbies or questions about new functionality in z/OS (not that many ask). Not allocating SYSLMOD to a source library is not something that is "new" or "unusual". -- 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.
