Section 4.3 of the Listowner's manual suggests a "job" when converting from another list. It says the syntax is QUIET ADD listname DD=X IMPORT //X DD * <user1> <full_name> <user2> <full_name> /* But when I send the job, I get a diagnostic that DDname X not found. Could this be a bug related to my validate setting? * Validate= Yes,Confirm,NOPW (The QUIET ADD command causes the OK procedure to be invoked. When I respond OK, I get the diagnostic. It doesn't appear to matter whether I wrap the above job in "// JOB" & an extra "/*".
