I don't expect you mean the following: <quote> cursor stability (CS) An isolation level that for cursors, after fetching and while positioned on a row, prevents the row from being changed by other applications until the cursor position is moved from the row. CS also prevents any row that is changed by other applications from being read until the change is committed. See also read stability, repeatable read, uncommitted read, isolation level. </quote> http://www-01.ibm.com/software/globalization/terminology/c.html So you should do what I always do and which I'm content for anyone to do - unless its an "official" abbreviation inside an "official" IBM manual - which is to introduce your abbreviations as follows: Communications Server (CS) Until informed that the official IBM standard was as above, I used to use the following form in my presentations: Communications Server, CS, so I changed since I'm all for uniformity! > I feel like an idiot. Don't take it so to heart! I'm sure none of the rest of us feel that. Chris Mason On Tue, 15 Feb 2011 08:31:54 -0500, Rob Schramm <[email protected]> wrote: >I feel like an idiot.
