    * FIX DESCRIPTION:     Date left by an CICS HGCC disable      *
    *                      option was corrupted by AGGCC.         *
    *                      Several other editing checks in AGGCC  *

    *                      AGGUC code was adjusted to be more     *
    *                      careful about checking for empty or    *

    *                      It is also necessary to cold restart   *
