Paul gave you a very good answer, but I wonder how was that USS file allocated in the first place? Dynamic Alloc, JCL DD statement, other method perhaps? Does it (allocation method) matters despite usage of flockfile()? Just curious of course. zMan: I think your father WWII ship is still sailing somewhere ( near that lovesick whale? :-D ) because of the constant disagreement about *true unfathomable* meaning of USS!!! :-D Groete / Greetings Elardus Engelbrecht ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
