Paul, You should look at C-TREE from Faircloth... it's used by a lot of people to implement VSAM-like functionality on many platforms. However, I think you might be hard-pressed to re-use your existing assemlber code on Linux/390. The calls will be totally different (there are no "macros" to invoke in Linux), everything will be in ASCII, entry/exit linkages are different, etc... - Dave Rivers - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe programming tools at http://www.dignus.com
