I contributed a "FIND" package to the CBTTape a number of years ago and updated it sometime in 2009. I based the code on an old version of FINDALL that was on the tape when Wall Street still had its wall. This latest version puts the results into a scrollable ISPF Browse dialog. It's in file

Ok all - Enough ad hominem attacks on each other. There are lots of IBMers who read this thread and what we want them to see is intelligent discussion not petulance. Let's stay on topic. If we want IBM to reply to the rumor I think we need to keep this discussion at an intelligent level. BTW

RACF - CLASS(PROGRAM)

Hi all - Does anyone know if there is a way, using CLASS(PROGRAM) in RACF (z/OS V1R8 and higher) to define all accesses to a given program?? That is: RDEF PROGRAM(PGMNAME) UACC(NONE) ADDMEM(LIBNAME/VOLUME/NOPADCHK) will deny access to LIBNAME(PGMNAME) but only if LIBNAME is on VOLUME. Simi

In my forty years of experience dealing with IBM and its customer services organization, I have found IBM to be the most customer-centric vendor out there. So it begs the question that since Vista is about to become the PC standard, why has IBM seemed to take such a cavalier attitude about getting

Of course, reading the softcopy manuals has become very difficult as well. Library Reader is no longer available (unless, of course you happen to have a very old library distribution - probably prior to 2001 or 2002 - laying around). Softcopy Reader doesn't work properly, or at all, under Windows
