Good point Tom. The system where we have implemented this is on 2.2, but I don't have any of the 2.1 manuals to see if this was part of it or not. It was a pleasure deleting VRS's especially since they just tied back to an SMS management class. As for the other systems we are waiting until they are 2.3 before converting per IBMs recommendation.

I'm stuck on V2R1 for the time being.
