Suppose you were a software vendor, and you had some physical files. And you converted them automatically when they upgraded from your version 1.5 to 1.6 it converts a physical file via a simple program that assumes several things like the format matches 1.5. Now assume back in 1.4 that same file's fields were named different in 1.5. Heck and some of the fields that used to be numeric are now alphanumeric. How well would you think the program would handle that? I guess I would be grateful if IBM stopped it before upgrading LIC by throwing a SRC versus upgrading my LIC and then finding out it couldn't upgrade SS1 because of conversion issues. Rob Berendt
