The language Paul Gilmartin cites is certainly not felicitous.  As I
have already noted, the OPs problem was, however, a different one.  He
used dataclass=, a nine-character keyword parameter, in a context in
which at most eight-character ones are supported.

Now it is fair to note that the choice of the keyword value 'dataclas'
was an ergonomically poor one: dtaclass=,. which I don't much like,
would have been better because less error-prone.

A fuss is nevertheless being made about nothing.  The trivial default
syntax I set out in an earlier post should be familiar, if only
implicitly, to anyone who writes JCL statements.
