I suppose it would have been (slightly) more explicit to ask what may be the OP's intended use of object modules that might not be likewise satisfied by load modules? (Inline SMP/E ++MOD elements and inline SYSLIN come to mind. Both assume that the OP has accepted "inline" as a requirement.)

I believe that boundaries of the input object modules are not preserved in the load module; the exact object module structure must be inferred from external information, not available to a delinker. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
