Anyone, I'm working with a skeleton that generates an EXEC statement that looks like this:
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=MYPROG,REGION=4M,PARM='&ZUSER' I wish to pass the value in ZUSER to MYPROG, but I see that if the TSO userid is < 8 characters long, the trailing blanks from the ZUSER variable are truncated, and are not being passed to my assembler application. I.e., if the userid is "USER1", I get a 5-byte parm string instead of an 8-byte parm string padded with blanks (or nulls, or anything). Is there a way to prevent the truncation, so that my application always receives a full eight-byte value, preferably blank-padded? Thank you!
