The "cdh_vrm" field in the CKD/CCKD dasd device header is the version of the Hercules CKD/CCKD device's file format, not the version of the program that happened to create that particular dasd image file. That sounds like yet another bug (albeit a minor/cosmetic one) in both CCKDDUMP and CCKDDU64 that needs to be fixed.
What is the CKD/CCKD device's file format?
Where can I place the updated source?
Please send it directly to me so I can be sure to get the fixed version it into Hercules.
To your email address?
So.... if we can get the program version bug fixed in both CCKDDUMP and CCKDDU64, then I would need a copy of the updated/fixed source code for both, as well as the updated/fixed object code for both , *AND* the updated/fixed load library module (linked executable?) for both as well. (Is that asking too much?)

I suppose if you can just send me the updated/fixed source code for each, I can try to create the object code and load library for each myself. But given my inexperience with z/OS, I'd rather not have to do that as I might only end up screwing something up, and I definitely *don't* want to do that after all of your hard work.

So, at the risk of pushing my luck, would I be asking too much if you could take care of this last little bit for me Andrew? I'd *really* appreciate it!
Yes, I can take care of that. I'd like to get confirmation from Brian and/or Jay, or anyone else for that matter, that the modifications work in their environments, before sending out the final src, obj and load.
