Don,

Thanks.  I had already looked at VMAC7072 and multiplied them by NRSAMPLE to 
turn them back into totals.

Great minds think alike :).  I always check Barry's code so I know that what 
MXG is telling me is the same thing RMF uses in report generation.

Subject: Re: SMF70PMU question

Hi Jim,

One more thing to keep in mind is that MXG converts the SMF70PMI, SMF70PMU, 
SMF70PMW variables to average per second values (Barry divides these 
variables by NRSAMPLE).  Barry often renames variables when he changes the 
raw SMF value by some algorithm, but he did not do so in this case.

MXG does describe the variables as AVG*.... in the LABEL for each variable, 
but you could easily miss that description unless you did a PROC 
CONTENTS.  Consequently, the "real" values are much larger than what you 
might expect when looking at these variables in the MXG TYPE70 file.

Best regards,

Don
