That's a piece of string you have there and it looks like some of it is snaking round the corner and out of view. :-)
Seriously, it would depend on things like how much processing to eliminate the ones you don't want, how many records you're suppressing and so on. Probably better to eliminate the production of the IFCIDs at source. Which ones are we talking about?

Can anyone direct me to some documentation that would help me to understand how much processing time would be saved by doing this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
