Thanks. I think we may just end up specifying a shorter WAITRCD in the file definitions themselves.

On a related note, while it seems intuitive that the WAITRCD parameter would be the wait for a record lock, the helptext for the WAITFILE and WAITRCD parameters of CRTPF kind of sheds mud on the difference between the two parameters, rather than light. Can anybody shed some light and clear away the mud?
