What I meant was that
XL3'1234567'
should generate an warning message no matter how it is used, as part of a
DC/DS or as a literal reference - since X'1234567' cannot fit in three bytes.
It is quite valid for the source literal field be of a different length, so
that
MVC THREEBYTES,=CL100' '
MVC HUNDREDBYTES,=CL100' '
can use the same literal.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.
I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
