Just as an aside, the Java "jar" command can be used to create or "explode" ZIP type files. Most z/OS shops should have Java. It's free. jar xf some.file.zip will eXtract the files from soe.file.zip jar cf some.other.zip file1 file2 file3 ... Will create a ZIP file containing the files. I don't think it supports "legacy" z/OS datasets, only z/OS UNIX files. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
