Hans,

You mean I only have 4 more days to get my licks on Ya...?  LOL...!
(Hopefully...)

But I would beg to differ with the above...


Also, my understanding was that even the iSeries version of DB2 handled
variable character data, as well as graphic, bitmap and all that...
Question to anyone is:  What are the ESSENTIAL differences between those
field types and a stream file...?  (If necessary, could You not convert
those back-and-forth TO stream files, and use the *nix-type-a
commands...???)


Cheers, as well, and (in case I don't wail on Ya anymore...;-), GOOD LUCK
with whatever Yer doin...!  jt
