Hi I replied yesterday on the Google group forum for IBMMAIN but saw no posting when reading the Listserv postings today
What I have to say is if the VSAM is definitely uncataloged then the following will work ) Run an IEHLIST LISTVTOC of the volume on which the VSAm DS resides 2) Check that the entry for the DSname is in the VTOC and that offset X'52' in the Format-1 DSCB is equal to '14' 3) Run AMAZPZAP to zap the "14" to "10" for the name entry 4) Run IEHPROGM to SCRATCH the Dataset. IEHPROGM now thinks it is a Sequential DS Regards ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
