Yes, I do realize I can do that. I was looking for a pre-existing alternative. Not that I don't like or am flummoxed by Rexx, far from it. Just a bit lazy at the moment.

It only does it for RECFM=FB PDS/E members, even at the z/OS V2.1 level. > WTF!? And why? I hadn't noticed that. Is it because it's easier to count lines if RECFM=FB (count bytes and divide by LRECL)? Or because revision level is/isn't available as the last two characters of the sequence numbers (shouldn't matter). Is this documented? Does NFS have the same behavior? I'll need to test. I know that "touch" via NFS fails to update the time stamp. Can the programmer enable/disable stats with NFS? If the data originate from a z/OS (or CMS) system, it might be better to use TRANSMIT (SENDFILE)/RECEIVE. If you want to copy to/from a UNIX (etc.) system and replicate timestamps, you're probably SOL. (TRANSMIT/RECEIVE may have a 1-hour skew if a Daylight Saving boundary (or the Equator) is between. They could have done better.) -- This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
