A Young Man, His Father and The Car.
A teenage boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of his father as to when they could discuss his use of the car. His father said he'd make a deal with his son, "You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut. Then we'll talk about t...

View VSAM without file-aid?
Hi,
Is there any way to view the vsam dataset without the use of a tool like file aid or file manager? I mean if some shop does not have file aid or file manager, is it possible to see the contents of a vsam dataset?

FTP file with packed decimals.
Hi, I have transferred a file from mainframe to a notepad. When I opened the notepad, I see all junk in the packed decimal fields. I am not sure how can I get it not to become junk, so I am thinking of writing a cobol program. But when we change the packed decimals to numeric displayable data the fi...

Re: Open a new window in ISPF with a key stoke.

Hi,
Is there any way I can assign a macro or a key to a macro, which will allow me to open a window from my current ISPF window?
