Yep....I forgot all about that. That was a while back.

Pat,

I seem to remember that IBM's original OS for the System 360 had a database
type called "partitioned database" that allowed for multiple members with the
same layout in a single file.  That was back in the 1960's, but the concept was
the same.  I think they used it then, basically, as a storage medium for 80
column punched cards .... source code, etc.
