 >> That's exactly why they're more or less forbidden.  Management decided
that it was easier to insure that it would never happen, than trying to
teach people how to avoid the cursor surprise.  It's the same reasoning
that forbids any new techniques on the basis that no one will understand
them.

 >> Kind of ties in with your "good enough" rant.

I can never understand this attitude - and many of the same people don't
seem to have a problem with using the latest PC stuff - maybe because they
are so used to that failing that a failure with new stuff is no worse than
a failure with old!

Anyone who calls themselves an iSeries professional shouldn't have a
problem with shared ODPs should they?  Unless they've only been in the job
about a year or so anyway.  Maybe I'm being too harsh.
