It sets up an LE environment variable, which has the same name as what is normally considered the DD name. If the DD name in the SELECT in COBOL is not already allocated, _and_ an LE environment variable is properly set up, _then_ the COBOL run time will do a dynamic allocation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
