When I was consulting to a hospital, they had a similar requirement (to ensure minimal data recovery). I wrote a CL to detach, save (to an 8mm drive dedicated to the function), and delete journal receivers on a periodic basis. After the CHGJRN command you can do a RCVMSG command on the "Receiver detached..." message to get the name for the save and delete. Sorry, been too long to remember the MSGID or a better description of the message -- try it yourself! HTH, Dean Asmussen Enterprise Systems Consulting, Inc.
