That's surprising. Paul's SYSOUT=() does the same thing. His SMS configuration must be different. It's as if SYSOUT is ignored. Indeed, I get the same thing if I specify //DD01 DD with no operands. I'm surprised that it doesn't cause a JCL error. SYSOUT=(,) will allocate to JES, though. I didn't try to send data to it, or even to open it. TFM says that it will default to class A. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
