Thanks. Now I kind of remember what they can do.

A CE appendage gets control after the channel program and any associated error

Forgive me, but I can't remember what a channel appendage is or
is for.

Could you just give me a quick answer/idea.

I used to do CCW stuff but since ECKD, I've only done CCWs for
tape (which is now not supported).

Steve Thompson

On the program we are both working on, the use of format-1
CCWs is not
needed. In the end, it's one linked together program that is
loaded by a
// EXEC card, thus it is always loaded in 24bit.

     So, the only reason for using a format-1 CCW is so that
the I/O
buffer can reside in 31-bit space?
