Yes, but at the cost of making the process even more complex. :) I tend to think that, from a support viewpoint (i.e. from the viewpoint of someone who has to go in and look at job output and possibly trace results), one job is a lot easier to handle than two or three. It's definitely a lot tidier. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
