Just a quickie afterthought to my last thread -- for dart practice. What about the ability to set via a user/account/system logon UDC the default job queue? :SETVAR HPDEFAULTJOBQUEUE "GOLDILOCKS" Of course, this would not be used if QUEUE= exists in the :STREAM ...;QUEUE= or :JOB ....;QUEUE= This means the UDC writer could use any algorithm they want to set default job queues for their set of users/jobs/groups/accounts Elbert
