Good guess.

Not even so.  I just tried it with a referenced DSN that
wasn't catalogued on DASD, and it worked equally well.

And I learned, painfully, that UNIT=AFF is mutex with
a NEW DA data set.  But it will pick up the unit via
VOL=REF.  Go figger.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I had been adding a step
with PGM=IEFBR14,COND=(0,LE).  But that may be unacceptable
in some STCs.  And now I can save a step.
