Thanks Kurt, (I'm still a little fuzzy on the FIXCAT() PARM on the APPLY, but it doesn't sound likely that I will ever use that)
The important things for me are... 1) Use SOURCEID for the when performing an apply for a FIXCAT category (which is what I've always done). 2) Before applying, receive all the HOLDDATA and make sure all the PTFs identified in the MISSINGFIXCAT report are received so that they will be found during the APPLY SOURCEID().
