Thanks for the answers. 

I was afraid that a redefinition of the library would be the answer. 
Otherwise I'll give it a go as soon as TSM is finished with it's daily
maintenance tasks. Which will keep him busy for a few more hours.

I've opened a PMR at IBM too, maybe they come up with something else
while TSM is busy.

Regards,
Kurt
