I've been using SMP/E 3.4 for orders since it was available so I don't know. I ask because one of our DB2 sysprogs was having a problem with this last week so I gave him my JCL (which is similar to above, but I have SMPXTOUT pointing to an MVS data set) and it worked. The ISPF stats on my JCL sample indicates 06/12/2007, so the "new" way must have been accepted for a long time.
