About the "MVS Control Blocks" book... When I couldn't find an available one, I traced down his work email address (he's a college professor) and sent him an email asking how I could get a hold of the book, but never got a response from him.Hopefully someone on here will have some insight how to track one down.

As a starting point, you could drop in on my presentation at SHARE... _____________________________________________________________ The next SHARE conference is in Denver - and so are we! SHARE is IBM's premier mainframe user event, held twice annually. This August the conference is in on our home ground, and we'll be there. Specifically, two of our instructors and course authors are presenting sessions: Steve Comstock Session 2238: "z/OS Control Blocks for Beginners" Thursday August 27, 09:30 Session 1214: "Doing Packed Decimal Arithmetic in Assembler" Thursday August 27, 15:00 Hunter Cobb Session 6142: "DB2 LOBs - A Practical Application" Thursday August 27, 13:30 Session 6152: "XML in DB2 9 for z/OS: Overview" Friday August 28, 11:00 If any of your people will be attending SHARE in Denver, suggest they attend one or more of our sessions; come by and meet us. Check out our presentation style. Learn new skills. Ask them to introduce themselves so we don't miss them. ________________________________________________________ The control blocks talk is intended for beginners, but it might have a few useful tidbits. Also, we intend to put our handouts on our website after SHARE, so if you can't make it, you can still get the notes.
