oops, except for that last one.

but you should be able to do that using the new v5r2 technique described by
Hans.

I kinda hate to let go of MODS too - i've always sorta loved them - the
best way to do things for a long time, but I always hated the limitations
of the occurs statement to access them.

Peter,

you can do all of these without using mult occurs data structures - you
might be confusing that with simple single level externally described DS's.

External definitions of the subfields? For keeping before/after images of a
record; you can use based DS's with prefixes to directly compare fields in
different occurrences.
