Hi Bill,
In UV's ED use the (start block) and (end block) to define a block of

Are you certain that catdir is not an O/S directory?
If so, you should be able to tell the Create Date, seperately from the last

Computer languages should be written for humans to read, not machines.
Why don't you take the OP's advice and learn

The PH file is a type 1 file(a directory).
On AIX: When you write the record back to the directory, the inode is
