Point well taken and thank you. As soon as I saw this on Wednesday,
I shared it with the rest of the team.
As I noted earlier, we will have a "fix" for this targeted
for April in DP/SQL 7.1.0.1.
I will take this opportunity to mention that we do have
a TSM/FCM EAP/beta program running for the next release and
would love to have anyone interested. If you are interested
in enrolling, please submit a sign-up form here:

For any questions, please contact Mary Anne Filosa, mfilosa AT us.ibm DOT com
Thank you,
Del
