That is true. Why I found this preferable to the original way is one of those things I cannot explain. As for the OWNSYSLB statement, the problem with that is it does not work to add more than a single library. But to be honest, I'm almost ready to give in on the point. It's not like a programmer (of which I am one) is going to have copybooks in multiple test libraries. So as long as the PROC has the production copylibs all in it's primary concatenation then your idea may be the best. I am glad to have more of an understanding of DD overrides, though. Thanks again.
