OK...I'm a bit baffled and readily admit it. I've created an EXEC in REXX to 
create 
a 12 step job to dump 420 DASD volumes to one 3592. Step one runs along fine 
and stacks all the volumes, 35 of them, fine in the first step. When the next 
step 
starts it belches on the tape so I know it's not passed correctly. I am sure it 
has 
to do with the RETAIN option..so do I put that on the last file of the first 
step or 
the first file of the next or both? This is a DR type of thing and the EXEC, 
which I 
inherited with the job, works great.

And yes...I have read the JCL User guide but it ain't helping a lot...
