IMHO, if you don't have the source code then that in itself is a good reason to get rid of the exit, carefully.

That means someone has to find the source code, make sure it's the actual version running, and then be able to understand it well enough to make a decision about whether the processing is needed or not. I've seen sites where even step 1 is a problem. So maybe a more realistic approach might be: Turn off the exit, wait to see if the phone rings, and be ready to put it back. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
