Precedence: bulk Hi Chuck, Go and take the fileshigh and make it files not high, and take the fcbshigh and make that fcbs only also not high. Try it that way and let me know I think that'll work. I have used the multi=on and the /xmumbs both and they don't seem to cause the emm error like the fcbs and files loaded high does.
