And ISPF is woefully ignorant of the similarity. For example, if in DDLIST I select a PDS with V(iew), DSLIST opens a member list with View as the point-and-shoot selection default. If in UDLIST I select a UNIX directory with V(iew), I get a failure, "Invalid file type". Why doesn't UDLIST do as DSLIST does and show a list of members in that directory? As for the sequential allocation of a PDS member you mention, I was dismayed to learn that OPEN sets DCBDSORG to PO, not PS. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
