point one- I agree, but I was trying(fail) to be humorous with a crazy situation.

point two - was trying to find a way to load only the previous groups PTFs, this was the only way I could think of replicating group 42.

Bryan,
While I think this customer is going about updates in all the wrong ways
it would be unethical to put on 43 and remove 43 from WRKPTFGRP.

And what would be the benefit of asking the customer to put on 43 but omit
any PTF's which were on it but not on 42? Sure, you can say you're at
level 43, but you really aren't. Which in my mind is about as useful as
going into the file containing this and just putting a 50 in there and be
done with it.

If one had the inclination I might pull a PTF on 43 which was not on 42
which had something scary in the PTF cover letter like "without this PTF
database corruption may occur" and show that to management and ask them
how staying a level behind, when there's a known preventive fix in the
next level, is a good idea?
