Hi ALL,
In front of member name (where its info is written) I can see its current version with heading VV MM. It has value somthing like 01.17

enrico-sorichetti

to see changes You need a version control product
ispf statistics are just eye catchers to hint that modifictions have been made,
as long as somebody does not reset the statistics to some ... values

If the member has standard sequence numbers, the most recent MOD level will be updated in last two columns. For example, on a JCL member with seq. numbers in 73-80, columns 79-80 will show '17' for the lines updated at MOD level 17. Do a FIND '17' 79 to locate these lines.

Wow ! That's interesting ! I saw it !
But what if an editer does a "NUM OFF" and changes the data ! I guess, it would not be tracable !

You are correct. There is security at the member level. And anyone with update authority can pretty much do what ever they want with the members, including making changes and trying to hide them. You can also issue STATS OFF or use ISPF 3.5 to change the userid of last change.

You need a library system to manage changes.
