As someone pointed out, a s0c7 may not really be due to a bad data field in the last record READ. But, to answer that question, if you did get an SVC dump using SLIP and you included RGN, SWA, TRT:
use IP SUMMARY REGS FORMAT to get the DEB chain printed or follow it yourself to find the OPEN DCBs at the time of the SLIP matching. The DCB has the "next record pointer" at +4C . It should be in the "buffer" so you might need to back up one record. AbendAid and Fault Analyzer do this for you but it does not sound like you have those. If the pgm used READ INTO or the compile specified AWO, the record actually being processed is moved from the buffer. If the record description contains an OCCURS DEPENDING ON clause (a variable length table), sometimes the program is not handling examining table entries in a record validly. In the REGS FORMAT report, look for an RTM2WA which may be useful since that will show the PSW and regs, in case you are not adept at reading the RBs. use IP SYSTRACE TIME(LOCAL) to find the interrupt code 0007 to verify the PSW (this will cross check with the RTM2WA PSW and/or the PRB), and look for other errors in the trace (do a find on "RCVY"). If this abend is in a COBOL internal SORT, in a COBOL input or output procedure, the RBs will show the SORT VERB by a LINK to the in-house SORT routine and the input/output procedures are then run from that RB, not the jobstep PRB. regards, Joe D'Alessandro ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
