Nothing strange in the source code:

Look at your source code with a hex editor.

If I assemble this (no variables at all):

FQMTEST  RSECT
         DC    CL8''
         DC    CL8' '
         END

I get this result:

000008 4040404040404040               3          DC    CL8' '
                                      4          END

There are no variables in the source at all.

There is nothing wrong with CL8''.
I guess &RQS has a value.

Hi,

Does anybody know why this happens:

  Active Usings: None
R-Loc  Object Code    Addr1 Addr2  Stmt   Source Statement                      
            HLASM R6.0  2020/04/20 08.13
000000 0A00000040404040            1938          DC    CL8''
000008 4040404040404040            1939          DC    CL8' '

I expected CL8'' to generate 8 spaces as well but it always seems to generate 
X'0A000000404040'.  The source code is

DC    CL8'&RQS'

The &RQS is an optional parameter for the macro that wants to generate an 
8-byte name (or spaces if the parameter is omitted). What's wrong with CL8''?

Fred!
