Re: Re: IMS/DB on MVS 3.8J

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for the files !

So does it work at all under MVT ?

I'd love to play around with it,  can't remember if I mentioned it to
you or not, but I programmed with it way back in the 1980's in
college.

If so ,do you have any  DASD / tapes  .. other  that I can load into MVT ?

I don't suppose the stuff in the tk3su is going to work on MVT ?

I have Kevin Leonard's  "turnkey" MVT

http://www.ibiblio.org/jmaynard/
http://www.ibiblio.org/jmaynard/asp.zip

running on my website.

Well sort of running :) .. I don't know how to vary a terminal online.
 I've got TCAM / TSO running but am stuck at that point.   :)

Mike
