Hi,

I have some dataset (vsam), when I use 3.4 and display short information, it's not showing the record length, block size and record format. They are all showing question marks in these areas.

why?

Info for VSAM files is kept in the catalog entry, not the VTOC on the volume. To see it you must do a LISTCAT.

On 3.4, starting in the "Command" column next to the entry, type LISTC ENTRY(/) ALL to list the catalog info. The slash will be replaced by the cluster name.
