I'll correct myself. i normally just download the ASSIGN file and receive that. I took a peek at the HOLDDATA file on RL and the sample PTF is in there. However, that class will only assigned if you get the data from RL which was my original point. ++ HOLD (HSMA250) FMID(HSMA250) REASON(AH50369) ERROR DATE(22355) COMMENT(SMRTDATA(FIX(UI83571) SYMP(B7.5,T7.2) CHGDT(221221))) CLASS(SECINT). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
