It contained six non-blank characters. The original value before I tinkered was seven bytes. Ah, and if I put a seventh in, it works. So the sample wasn't entirely broken, just over-coded - it works equally well with the extra quotes removed. Well, my problem is solved and I feel a wee bit better about the sample...thanks all! ...phsiii From: Phil Smith Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2013 10:09 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: SAVE macro Thanks, Steve. I had searched for that book but somehow wound up in the Assembler Services Guide, which of course wasn't as helpful. Removing the extra quotes seems to have fixed it: SAVE (14,12),,'&SYSPARM &SYSDATE &SYSTIME' Am I unreasonable to be vaguely horrified that the samples don't even work? ...phsiii ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
