David O. McKay >Mattes | President 1951-70, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints We used to have a fix in DMKCFC. Now that we are at VM/SP5 put 9002 (NO hpo) the code has been split so that the fix is in DMKCFB. There is also an update required to ACIMAP which is a MACRO in DMKRWA. Basically, you just move MSG and DIAL down in the list so they are not checked until after logon is completed. -------------------SYSTEM - VM/SP R5------------------------ Don Hayes, VM systems programmer, Northern Illinois University, Dekalb, IL USA 60115
