If SYSTSIN is RECFM=F*,LRECL=80, TSO processes 1-72 and ignores 73-80. I don't believe they need to be valid sequence numbers. If SYSTSIN is RECFM=VB, TSO processes 9-?? and ignores 1-8. I haven't investigated other combinations. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
