It's IEHPROGM and it's found in the IBM UTILITIES Manual. |

The point expat was making is that IEHPROGM is not a VSAM utility so cannot be used to delete VSAM datasets. IDCAMS (AMS) is the approved way of deleting VSAM datasets. _________________ Utility and Program control cards are NOT, repeat NOT, JCL. |

I guess that the OP may have resolved the problem by now as there seems to be very little input from them. _________________ If it's true that we are here to help others,

I got the point of the VSAM delete but apparently he didn't get the point of IDCAMS and that the standard IBM utilities don't work with VSAM. I figured if he knew where to look, he'd find that out. |
