My traditionalist systems programmer doesn't quite understand the request, and I have better uses for his good will than to press the issue as long as I can (and do) perform the operation from Solaris. It's just quicker to grep for a string in SYS1.MACLIB than to fill in the blanks in the SuperC panels.
But NFS/grep fails to meet the OP's requirement for filtering on volser. But that's never bothered me: I don't care which corner of the computer room my data reside in. The catalog takes care of that for me. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
