Thanks for the clarification, Kurt. I didn't think RESTORE processing had changed.

No, no, no, that's not it at all. This discussion was solely about building load modules from scratch. Both APPLY and RESTORE have this capability. That is independent of whether RESTORE requires PTFs to be accepted or must be restored. That processing has not changed.
