Robert,

I agree that you all are senior members, and you all have better knowledge than me.

But could you take a look at the attachment which I sent you.

Let me know your thoughts on it

Robert,

I think what the TS was trying to imply was that by using the AIX in independent VSAM mode, he could modify his AIX.

Why someone would think that this would be faster/better that using the idcams utility to build/rebuild an AIX I don't know.

it almost seemed that he wanted to modify his AIX based on 'to be' key values (the result of an upcoming update to the master). Since he already had a 'old-new' file, it was an unnecessary exercise.

another case of finding a situation for the solution.

I've sent my thoughts -- your program does not show access to only the AIX but access to the base cluster THROUGH the AIX.

Hello,

I could use AIX as independent file also.
There is a huge difference between being persistent and merely being stubborn. . .

No matter how long/repeatedly you mis-use termnology, it will not become correct (or acceptable in technical discussions).

All you can accomplish by continued insistence, is to remain confused as well as confuse others who are also trying to learn.
