Are you sure that you're not thinking of SMP through SMP4, the free SMP that preceeded SMP/E?

I'm sure I recall that some of the SMP/E work PDSes had member names that not only were mixed case but also included characters that you'd not see in PDSs processed via standard ispf utilities. I can't quite remember if they used every single byte value in each of the 8 character positions, but I think they might have done, thus allowing 256 ** 8 different member names. -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
