:>Oh?  The Assembler Services References seems pretty clear that R15 does 
indeed contain a return code after a GATMAIN RU.  It can be 0 or (if 
CHECKZERO=YES was specified) 20.


It also states:

"When the GETMAIN macro returns control to your program and you specified a
conditional request, GPR 15 contains one of the following hexadecimal return
codes:"

which implies that R15 is not set for unconditional requests.

Either way, RU - ALWAYS - gets storage if it does not abend.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
