It's just that the IBM CE put some doubt in my mind. Anyway, according to you
it doesn't matter whether I delete RPG or not. All the other lic pgms I have are
directly supported on 370 (at least according to the upgrade assistant).
So for the reasons the CE gave me I might not remove RPG from the source
system.

Thanks for your help,
Matthias
