I tried to print a VSAM data set once with AMASPZAP, and, IIRC, it didn't  
work.  Whatever you print with AMASPZAP has to be within an allocated data  
set, 
except for the VTOC which can be printed by calling the VTOC  
DSN=FORMAT4.DSCB.  IEHDASDR evidently doesn't require the track(s) be  
allocated from an 
earlier post.  Another shortcoming of AMASPZAP is that it  will not print a 
block 
with a block size larger than 32K.  And you have to  add another JCL parameter 
(DCB=KEYLEN=255) to get it to print keys.  Which  is why I wrote my own track 
dumper to print the home address and all (count,  key, and date) of all 
records on the track regardless of how long the blocks  are.  I've invented 
this 
wheel more than once in my career.
