​That's where I went sidewise. Thanks for the enlightenment. I totally
agree with you that SPFEDIT should have included the volser in the case of
a PDS. I would _guess_ it is a design flaw due to the ISPF person thinking
(as I was) about how SYSDSN was done and deciding to be similar. It might
even had been a good decision for non-PDS data sets as well.
rname==volser||dsn||member (where member=8C' ' if non-PDS?)
