---------------------------------<snip>----------------------------------- > 1) now how do I remove the old one from SYS1.FORTLIB ? You can do it interactively from TSO (my preference), or using IBM utilities and JCL (which I don't know what the magic incantaion is ... I think you can use either IDCAMS with DELETE statements or just IEBFR14 (the dummy program), with MOD,DELETE or some such in the DISP parameter. --------------------------------------<unsnip>------------------------------------ NO NO NO NO NO IEFBR14 will delete the entire dataset, not just the member!! A very common "newbie" mistake! Look at my previous post for the magic incantation for the proper batch utility. IDCAMS in MVS 3.8J did NOT have member delete functions. It can, howwever, be very dangerous as it might delete the entire dataset. Rick
