Malke, actually I am not expecting any patch from IBM. Their advice is to
employ IFS instead of the QDLS on AS400. This I have not tried. My life will
be easier if there is something I can do to SP2 to fix this problem. The mug
shot app. vendor does not see it economically viable to develop another
version that may or may not run on SP2. Since their latest version runs well
in SP1, they are advising that I stick to SP1 pending a successful transition
to IFS on AS400.
