I am slowly setting up a set of permanent filters that I can use.  The

issue

is our production source.  We have so many members in it, QRPGLESRC
especially, that I have to subset in order for it to be useful (and to

avoid

locking WDSC up for a long time).

It sounds like we have somewhat similar setups - one QRPGLESRC for all
production source.  I had some of the same problems you describe when I
was getting started with WDSC.  I've learned that Ctrl+Shift+A is my
friend - this keyboard shortcut lets me specify the lib/file/member to
open.  It only works if you know the exact name, otherwise I'd suggest the
iSeries Table View.

 I already have sixteen permanent filters
 and 5 project ones, and I've only begun.

You may want to look in to "Filter Pools" - it's essentially a way of
creating directories to group your filters.  It's worked very well for me
due to our shop's naming format.

HTH,
