Hello from Gregg C Levine Funny that particular comment surfaced here. If I remember correctly, MVS was originally built, and debugged, under VM, early releases that is of MVS, I would think, and I know everyone will correct me, that VM itself was also built, and debugged under itself. Oh, and there were a large amount of complaints of the early releases of MVS, abnormally ending under VM, so this issue is neither old, nor new. Just different. And I believe that discussion surfaced originally on the list that discusses the H entity. Now if I have my facts wrong, I will cheerfully accept any corrections, public or private. ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
