Much to my surprise, I have run into a number of shops in Europe and elsewhere that do not have VIO defined. Color (or colour) me surprised.

Every shop I've ever worked in has had it as a matter of course. Every shop, that is, until my current one. Instead, it has UNIT=VIODA for the same purpose. It has now bitten us i nthe butt, and I've put in a request to have out systems contractor define UNIT=VIO as a duplicate of UNIT=VIODA. Has anyone else ever run into a shop that didn't have UNIT=VIO? -- Jay Maynard ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ================================ Rocket Software, Inc. and subsidiaries ■ 77 Fourth Avenue, Waltham MA 02451 ■ Main Office Toll Free Number: +1 855.577.4323 Contact Customer Support: https://my.rocketsoftware.com/RocketCommunity/RCEmailSupport Unsubscribe from Marketing Messages/Manage Your Subscription Preferences - http://www.rocketsoftware.com/manage-your-email-preferences Privacy Policy - http://www.rocketsoftware.com/company/legal/privacy-policy ================================ This communication and any attachments may contain confidential information of Rocket Software, Inc.
