To summarize, since all the appends I have read through have been correct, For the ECB mentioned in ATTACH,EP=CHILD,ECB=ECB1 WAIT ECB=ECB1 DETACH (R1)
the answer to the subject question is: "You don't". The child should not be looking at this ECB. This ECB is for use by the system when the attached task terminates. For any other ECB, ATTACH does not pass the address of the ECB. It is up to the user to pass the address of the ECB via the normal mechanisms of passing any data to the attached TCB (whether that is via the PARAM keyword or some other mechanism).
