Tony et al,
>> In many cases it makes more sense to use a macro-time variable
("variable symbol") for this sort of thing:
and the sample:
>> &CODE SETC 'ABCDE'
CLC MYSTRING,=C'&CODE'
You can use your sample without macros with newer (as in 27 years)
assemblers.

Also very very helpful when doing something like this:
EX R1,=S(8*256(14),RECEIVER,SENDER) setup to scan for end
as opposed to this:
EX R1,=S(&MVCIN,RECEIVER,SENDER) setup to scan for end
