Are you sure you want to do that? I believe that is the self-defining entry
for the catalog in question. For example, I just did a listc of one of my

Indeed, that was the issue, so thank you.

Yes, someone on one of the Hercules lists found that page last month, then they
deleted the "Learner's Edition" info from the website. There was some chatter
that someone who actually contacted IBM about getting it was told it would be
back sometime in October after sales people had been traine
Yes, and I hit Send too soon as well. There is a further FAQ later on the
second page that points to a page that tells you how to qualify both for actual
students and for already-experienced developers.
It's going to be an interesting time.

Thank you for your reply, Kurt.
Things have moved on somewhat. Having cancelled the deployment dialogue and
started again (possibly with a different 2.4 software instance - I am not sure
which one I selected the first time) I found that most of the datasets were
correctly matched against the 2.
When I started the work I'm currently doing with an IBM business

The 'lady' didn't know what she's talking about - this is a direct copy from
the FAQ
The ZD&T for Learners Edition is $120.00 USD per year for qualified applicants.

Then their website is lying - you should counter her by pointing her to the
website and threaten reporting to gov't agencies if she balks.
Ask to talk to her manager first though. That usually gets better results.

Thanks. I might consider trying again. But it appears that marketing is not
up to date on this. And, actually, I can do any "fun" development on Linux

Thanks for the reply Tom. I am of the opinion that the wording of that
paragraph is not clear enough. One extra sentence to make clear that the
CONTAINING program definitions take precedence over CONTAINED definitions of
the same name.
If I can find the time I can submit an RCF to that effect
