Hi Chris,

I know nothing about this company/software and their claim,  we're in the same 
boat and I found them while researching.  I haven't tried their software yet.

Here's their claim:

 Z-Writer is the quick-code utility for z/OS mainframes. Its native syntax is 
very similar to competing quick-code tools such as DYL-280, Easytrieve, Quikjob 
and CA-Earl. If you are using one of those programs, you'll be able to run your 
existing programs on Z-Writer with only minor changes.

And with our ZWDYL interface, you can actually run all your existing DYL-280 
(VISION:Results) program without any changes to either the program code or the 
JCL. Our ZWQUIK interface (beta) lets you do the same thing for your Quikjob 
(VISION:Report) programs.

The company is called Pacific Systems Group and their website is 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.pacsys.com__;!!IfVdvpvC!CRxRrdvGWX-0nF0bVEqPXCKpp-epQtvKj6gCX4cYLqYFJPS6BQu-VN7SsHFfHy0Q$
 .   Let me know if you check it out and how they work for you.  I will say I 
checked pricing and at least at this point in time for us, their price isn't 
much less than the CA products we're looking to replace.

Rex

The site I support may soon be in the need for a load&go report writer

We would need an alternative to
       Culprit
       Eztrieve
       Quickjob
       Earl

Without any research - any other report writers come to mind?
