  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of DB2 Tools Customizer z/OS.          *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: This PTF adds function to more easily   *
  *                      create, copy, delete DB2 entries and    *
  *                      edit group attach name for DB2 entries. *
  *                      The following enhancements have been    *
  *                      made:                                   *
  *                      * On the  Customizer Workplace  panel,  *
  *                       the  message  column has been added    *
  *                       to indicate the last action that the   *
  *                       user completed for the DB2 entry by a  *
  *                       line command such as  Edited, Copied,  *
  *                       Browsed or Generated . Also it will    *
  *                       indicate the copied DB2 entry SSID.    *
  *                      * The  Common  keyword will be added    *
  *                       to section headers on the  DB2         *
  *                       Parameters  panel.  The  Common        *
  *                       keyword differentiates between those   *
  *                       parameters that are common across      *
  *                       products versus DB2 parameters that    *
  *                       are product specific.                  *
  *                      * From the  Customizer Workplace        *
  *                       panel, the user can now copy to        *
  *                       existing DB2 entries that are          *
  *                       associated or not associated to the    *
  *                       current product.                       *
  *                      * From the "Customizer Workplace"       *
  *                       panel, the user can copy to multiple   *
  *                       new DB2 entries by issuing the         *
  *                        CREATE nn  command from the  Copy     *
  *                       Associated DB2 Entry  panel.           *
  *                      * From the "Copy Associated DB2 Entry"  *
  *                       panel, the user can copy to all the    *
  *                       listed DB2 entries on this panel by    *
  *                       issuing the "SELECTALL" command.       *
  *                      * From the "Customizer Workplace"       *
  *                       panel, the user can now copy from one  *
  *                       DB2 entry to one or more associated    *
  *                       DB2 entries.  Furthermore the user     *
  *                       will have the ability to copy the      *
  *                       common DB2 parameters values and /or   *
  *                       the product specific DB2 parameters    *
  *                       values. TCz will prompt the user with  *
  *                       the "Copy DB2 Parameters Values" pop   *
  *                       up panel to allow the user to choose   *
  *                       which options.                         *
  *                      * From the "Customizer Workplace"       *
  *                       panel, the user can now copy from DB2  *
  *                       entry to one or more DB2 entries that  *
  *                       are not associated.  All the product   *
  *                       specific DB2 parameters values will    *
  *                       be copied.                             *
  *                      * During the copy process TCz will      *
  *                       check whether any dataset names        *
  *                       contain the DB2 SSID as an isolated    *
  *                       qualifier.  If there are any           *
  *                       occurrences of isolated DB2 SSID in    *
  *                       the dataset name, TCz will prompt the  *
  *                       user allowing him/her to change this   *
  *                       qualifier during the copy process.     *
  *                      * From the "Associate DB2 Entry for     *
  *                       Product" panel, the user will have     *
  *                       the ability to create multiple DB2     *
  *                       entries at the same time by issuing    *
  *                       the  CREATE nn  command.               *
  *                      * From the "Create DB2 Entry" panel,    *
  *                       the user can now easily insert and     *
  *                       delete rows.                           *
  *                      * From the "Associate DB2 Entry for     *
