The content of a PDS directory can of course change. How not? My points were two: 1) that it has been a very long time since changes in a mapping DSECT for a PDS directory block were required, and 2) that such changes are now highly unlikely. (Neither PDSMAN nor Endevor makes use of new or redefined fields.)
Such a change is not, of course, absolutely precluded; nor again is grave damage inflicted by a purple cow falling from the sky. --jg ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
