Hi Del

I've tried to this earlier... and it didn't work - so I raised a PMR on this 
issue (tried both with an YES & NO) - and got answer on my PMR "Working as 
designed... COMPRESSALWAYS is not implemented in the TDP agents from Tivoli!"

Flemming

Flemming,

What happens when you put this into the DSM.OPT file for DP/Exchange?

   COMPRESSION YES
   COMPRESSALWAYS YES

Thanks,

Del
