Normal, for me, when I am learning new stuff to get things a bit mixed up.

I meant MACRF=GM vs GT.   Stuble says "watch this one" next to the T.  This 
text was probably written in 1969 or so.

Wonderful how a book last updated in 1984 is still valid today.  How many 
MicSoft books and software I've thrown in the trash over the years.  How much 
money.

What I tried to say, was to think a what if I wanted to code my program in 31 
or 64 bit mode, but keep the DCB's below the line.  From all what I've read, it 
appears to me, appears only, that I could just STORAGE OBTAIN LOC=BELOW and  
put the DCB's there.  That I think there is a MF=L option to some macros that 
allow you to move the storage to wherever.  That was the magic part.  But I got 
it wrong.

Doc says:
You can assemble the DCB macro into a program that resides above the 16 MB 
line, but the program must move it below the line before using it. Except for 
the DCBE, all areas that the DCB refers to, such as EXLST and EODAD, must be 
below the 16 MB line

P.S. Happy Birthday Sibelius.  He was so young, about 35 or so when he wrote 
Finlandia.

Ah, but that is specified as OPTCD=T, your post said MF=T and I couldn't find 
that.
