Try without any excess spaces in the first PARM line, maybe: // PARM='SH echo sftp -b /u/bpxbatch/mccheck ftpfis-depot-test.ucdavis.edu |su // -s bpxbtch' Those trailing spaces you had in the first line count against your 100 limit. You can even break up a parameter in mid-string if your data needs it; but the above should work. Alternatively, you can define SET symbols and concatenate them. // SET PART1='/u/bpxbatch/mccheck' // SET PART2=' ftpfis-depot-test.ucdavis.edu ' // SET PART3=' | su -s bpxbtch' //PS082 EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,PARM=&PART1&PART2&PART3 Kind regards, -Steve Comstock The Trainer's Friend, Inc. 303-393-8716 http://www.trainersfriend.com z/OS Application development made easier * Our classes include + How things work + Programming examples with realistic applications + Starter / skeleton code + Complete working programs + Useful utilities and subroutines + Tips and techniques ==> Check out the Trainer's Friend Store to purchase z/OS <== ==> application developer toolkits.
