IBM cleaned up the M&C for IEB1099I and IEB1099E in response to my RCF a few years ago, but declined to clarify in the RM "when it can not avoid using a service requiring authorization", stating that IBM preferred not to commit to a specification. I don't respect that; sometimes it works, sometimes it fails, IBM won't document it. But I regularly, now that I think of the code, use an EXEC that does CALL *(IEBCOPY) with no TSOEXEC, and used to fail when I used ATTCHMVS. (I remember the failures better than the solution.) How does all that relate to AUTHPGM? >RECEIVE/XMIT were changed many years ago, to not require it anymore. > Confirmed by experience. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
