Mmmh. I thought of using the logical name trick after looking around some 
more.
I just tried it.

%LINK-I-IDMISMCH, GSMATCH of 02,00001C in shareable image 
DGSI_A1:[TREMBLAY]SORTSHR.EXE;1
        differs from GSMATCH of 02,00001D in shareable image library 
SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]IMAGELIB.OLB;2

So there's probably something more to it. Or maybe not, this is just an 
informational message. I will have to try the program later.

I'll check out Bob's presentation (http://www.rlgsc.com/cets/2000/460.html) 
when I have a minute or two.

Thanks
