How does this work? I'm thinking the OP's issue is that the SPFEDIT enqueue's
minor name is the library and member name, no volser. So even though they are
two different libraries, the enqueue blocks the 2nd edit.
In my testing, you get the same SPFEDIT enqueue when use edit using a LMINIT
dataid. Which it would have to, because otherwise they're be a lot of PDS
corruption caused by simultaneous updates being allowed when one or more Edit
sessions are via a dialog.

Subject: Re: ISPF Edit of same named files
use library services to do it
1. allocate each to a unique DD
2. use lminit on each dd
3. edit each using dataid
4. lmfree each when done
5. tso free each dd
rough sample
Address ISPExec
'lminit dataid(ddb) ddname('ddn')'
'Edit dataid('ddb')'
'lmfree dataid('ddb')'
Address TSO,
'Free f('ddn')'
