Re: LIBL limitation of 25 libraries

To avoid the 25 library limit is a design issue.  IMHO, any application designer
that would require that many libraries should be taken out and...... well never
mind....

If the calls are by command you can qualify the library without adding to your
list.  Otherwise the program making the call must determine if the appropriate
library is within the currently active list and if not arbitrarily kick off any
other library.  If -all- programs do this, you could get some really high
activity on RMVLIBLE/ADDLIBLE and we get back to a design issue.

If the application you purchased does not qualify it's calls by library name,
there is no reason that you could not take all products and place them into a
single library.  View their "distribution" library as one thing and your "usage"
library as another.
