Why not just append blanks to the end of the PARM yourself? //STEP1 EXEC PGM=MYPROG,REGION=4M,PARM='&ZUSER ' You can then just ignore the extras. This only works if you are only interested in the &ZUSER as your example showed. If you have other parms at "fixed" offsets, then this won't work. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
