Hmm, that is a strange one, especially since I just looked in my ancient os/390 2.10 JCL reference manual and it actually shows using LABEL=(0001,....)
Just for kicks, does it still complain if you take out the extra commas? I just tried (on z/OS 1.4) to run and it didn't complain. What error are you actually getting? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lizette Koehler Sent: Monday, October 23, 2006 2:51 PM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: FileSeq Number on Tape Ok, here is a very basic question: When I code the FILESEQ number on a Tape - it failes if I used hi order zeros. So it will not take 0001 but will take 1. I did not remember this being a restriction in JCL. At what point in the converter code would look at this and not like 0001. LABEL=(0001,,,,EXPDT=98000) vs. LABEL=(1,,,,EXPDT=98000) Thanks for the insight.
