Hi Allan, This "thing" has got no description; it is not a NONVSAM nor a VSAM entry. There is no VOLSER associared with it. I tried using IDCAMS DELETE NONVSAM but all I got in return was IDC3203I ITEM '.....|.' DOES NOT ADHERE TO RESTRICTIONS. Which is not surprising considering that it does have spaces in it.
