Let me second what Walt says. Don't even do this as your SECOND project in assembler! <g>
I have done this, and it's all documented, but the interdependencies of the parameters, their implications, and what works when, and so forth, can be difficult and frustrating. (Sorry -- I no longer have access to the code I wrote.) Further, unless you have a sandbox system that you totally "own," or that is totally dedicated to development by a relatively small team, you may find that the powers that be take a dim view of your messing around in RACF. Note that there are older versions of the RACROUTE macro with names like RACINIT and RACHECK. Just ignore those unless you are modifying old code that uses them -- stick with RACROUTE, which supports every current feature.

Where can one find such > information, in a book, on how to do this? The RACROUTE Macro Reference describes the macros, but does not provide much guidance on how to use them. But it will describe the macro(s) and their parameters. You can find the book online at http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/ICHZC671/CCONTENT S?SHELF=EZ2ZO10H&DN=SA22-7692-09&DT=20060928211139 or http://preview.tinyurl.com/35j8xd Note that you need to run APF-authorized to do what you want, which may not be possible depending on the environment in which your code will run. You should also already be familiar with doing assembler coding. Don't make this your first project in assembler. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
