Hello Everyone,
Does anyone know of a way to get data that is on a reel tape past another
job that written to this tape.  I have a set of 4 tapes of archive records
and the 4th tape was carelessly used by a past employee on another tape job.
Now I am left with trying to restore as manyrecords as possible, and
everything that I have tried so far is failing.  I am trying to use FCOPY
with SKIPEOF=+(I have gone from 1 to 12 on this parm), and I can't get
passed what was last written to tape.

I might be SOL, but I am desperately grasping at straw's and willing to try
anything.
