How am I supposed to get 1.5m out before I (have to) leave on holidays if a 500 recs file prior 0 doesn't get through FRMOP22-CEARN in >= 31 hours (they're still there... Sigh). I'd like to still be there when the stuff gets installed so that I can fix problems if something breaks with the new code. Should I split the shipment files into 100 100-recs files??? Oh well. I'm afraid it would be better to wait until after the holidays. Oh, Brave New EARN that hath such backlogs in it! Eric
