No, 10, '10' and "10" all represent the same string. Since ADDRESS interprets
the address operand as a hexadecimal representation of the address, that is the
CVT pointer. My guess is that the code uses a computed address and does not
feed it into D2X.
FOO = STORAGE(CVT+BAR,8) /* Incorrect */
FOO = STORAGE(D2X(CVT+BAR),8) /* Correct */

Subject: Re: Rexx function STORAGE with weird behavior on Netview
The first argument to STORAGE is a string. 16 would be wrong.
While it's possible that this won't fix it, the correct syntax would be:
CVT = C2d(Storage('10',4)) /* point to CVT */
>From the TSO/E REXX Reference:
STORAGE returns length bytes of data from the specified address in storage. The
address is a character
string containing the hexadecimal representation of the storage address from
which data is retrieved.

If you are trying to get the cut the address is x10 not 10 try 16 instead of
10… boundary issue if you use 10…
