The default size of DFHCOMMAREA is one byte (it's a "placeholder"). To change it, any program wanting to "send" a commarea to another program must include the COMMAREA(data_area) and LENGTH(commarea_length) keywords on the LINK, XCTL or RETURN commands. The "receiving" program must have an identical mapping defined for the commarea sent. http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/DFHP3A08/7.3. 2.1 -jc- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
