RE: Module source naming schemes

It will also cause problems if you ever need to access it via SQL.  The copy
stream file commands will probably not like it either.  We have a software
vendor who used "." in their library names and it has made life difficult.

Brad,

Be wary of your dot notation.  Consider trying to FTP the F.DATE module.
Perhaps it's in the library MYSOURCE in the QMODSRC file.  The FTP syntax
to point to this file would be:

MYSOURCE/QMODSRC.F.FDATE

I can guarantee you that will cause problems.  I had one of my
subcontractors
use dot notation and he had to rename the member so he could FTP it.

Regards,

Jim Langston
