Rob,

How many utilities really respect EDTCDE and EDTWRD? Are these 5250 based
utilities only?

Concur wholeheartedly with your appreciation. Nowadays most (if not all) of
my reports are done as Excel (.CSV) files, and my interactive queries are
either client/server or web based, where the EDTCDE info is "lost".

Also, A fact that I think is sometimes overlooked is the ability to
retrieve the SQL source code for a particular *file object. I have lost
count of how many times the proper source code for the file is either
"lost", outdated or simply modified without being sent to the production
system. Yes, I know that proper change management is at fault here, but in
my experience that is a problem that happens even in most "well managed"
sites.

Regards,

Luis
