With "IBM(R) Enterprise PL/I for z/OS V4.R2.M0" the following code:
DCL SOURCE CHAR(10) INIT('0123456789');
PUT SKIP LIST( ">" !! SUBSTR(SOURCE, 8, 5) !! "<" );
leads to msg:
"IBM1446I E 4.0 Third argument in SUBSTR reference is too big. It
will be trimmed to fit."
and TFM says under SUBStR():
The STRINGRANGE condition is raised if z is negative or if the
values of y and z are such that the substring does not lie entirely
within the current length of x.
