You could simply code the DCB with DSORG, and at run-time, reinitialize the DSORG field. Why would you want to hand-craft a control block?

Just to be a bit pedantic, he could build his own DCB without using the macro. In the past I've committed a few programs that build their own control blocks, e.g., DCB/DEB/IOB combinations. Would be interesting to try this without a DSORG.
