Most likely because the BLKSIZE is in the JFCB, and so acts as an override. If the small BLKSIZE is only in the DSCB it is treated differently. I actually thought about testing this yesterday, but didn't have time. I suspected that it would work this way.

I then tried allocating a temp pds in a previous step and passed it. This also worked ok. I don't know why it fails if allocated in the same step. -- Richard ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html CONFIDENTIALITY/EMAIL NOTICE: The material in this transmission contains confidential and privileged information intended only for the addressee.
