He wants to be able to access the OUTPUT statement fields from inside his program. I think he wants to be able to pass information, or act on the information contained there. He said he spent weeks trying on his own, and I looked around, but couldn't find any access path through the control blocks. I figured that it has to be connected to JES, so I assumed just looking at the JCT might be a good start, but couldn't find it quickly.
Thanks for the information, I'm sure he will be happy for anything we can offer. BRian ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
