For what it's worth, Compuware tools no longer "require" separate DDIO files. Check out "Embedded Source Support" which is a new feature - it basically puts the DDIO information into NOLOAD segments of the program object. It is a new option, but separate DDIO files are still supported of course. Sure sounds a lot simpler to manage, but we've not tried it yet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
