The results can be unpredictable, especially if the imbedded JCL symbol is not previously defined.
Damn feckless IBM! Don't call a construct "unpredictable". Either report it as a JCL error or specify the effect in the Ref. But ISVs should avoid "unpredictable" constructs in customer-facing code. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
