I think the key is when doing SJ, as long as you don't go past column 71,
you will be ok. Your statement said only that you wanted to be able to use
wider than 80 columns, although I suppose that would mean putting something
past column 80. I think the JCL book would say you can't go beyond col 71,
thus your JCL error.

Subject: Re: Enhanced JCL processor? (and maybe a few other thoughts)
I think so. I editted a JCL in a VB/259 dataset and made a really long
PARM.
// SET SYMBOL1=A
// SET SYMBOL2=B
// SET SYMBOL3=C
// SET SYM=Q
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14,
//
PARM=('&SYMBOL1.&SYMBOL1.&SYMBOL1.&SYMBOL1.&SYMBOL1.X&SYSBOL2.Y&SYMBOL3.
Z')
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=D
This got a JCL error:
J E S 2 J O B L O G -- S Y S T E M D E V 1
-- N O D E L I H 1
