Dean,

There are a few BMRs that address the problem of not clearing the ECHW & ECLW
files correctly,
have you checked OGS Online or called the Helpline for assitance? As far as the
SSATCP problem
passing bad parameters to BIL, do you have the BMR number that was created for
this problem?
Was it escalated by yourself or the Helpline? If you call the helpline with that
BMR number they can
tell you its status and escalate it for you if it has not been done already.

You know Clare, you're the second or third SSA staff member to suggest I
clear the work files.  I don't mean to be ugly, but WHY DO YOUR PROGRAMS
_LEAVE_ RECORDS IN THE WORK FILES IN THE FIRST PLACE???  Don't give me that
"the client crashed" excuse, either.  I haven't had enough clients crash
within a week of clearing the files to generate 13K+ records.  There is
something _seriously wrong_ with BPCS, which should be quite easy to correct.
 Then again, all serious BPCS work seems to have ceased since Gores took
over.  We reported an occasional problem with the SSATCP jobs sending the
wrong number of parameters to a BIL program over six months ago and have yet
to receive a fix.  Is this the level of support to be expected for BPCS under
the Gores regime?
