I don't *think* CEEENV or setenv will do dynamic allocation. That might be a good reason to pick BPXWDYN.

Doing some very limited in initial research I've found three documented methods of performing Dynamic Allocation in COBOL ( Enterprise COBOL 4.2), BPXWDYN, CEEENV or setenv. Q1) Are there any others?We already use a home grown assembler program for dynamic allocation, but our direction is to move as much to the OS as possible. Q2) Is there any reason to pick one over the others? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
