A little known feature of AOS/VS II is that this information is available through the ?FSTAT system call. If you have a AOS/VS II system, issue a FILESTATUS/PACKET CLI command and check out locations 25 and 26, this will give you the actual number of blocks taken up by the file (in octal). This used to only work with CPDs and LDUs, but we made it work with all files. Standard Disclaimers Apply Don Lehman AOS/VS II Development. Internet: don@tzone.ceo.dg.com
