- Dave,
- There was something on the CBT or SHARE tapes called TSUPDATE. It could
- run as a batch job on MVS and change strings. It can also run in a report
- or simulation mode. It was fairly extensive on what it could do. It had
- been written by someone in CONRAIL.
- I haven't seen a list of what is on the tapes in a long time but you may
- want to check it out. I last got something off one of those tapes in 1989.
- Good Luck!
