May I plead that posters post more than just "it does not work"? The actual bad result is very important to those who are listening and trying to help. >Using TCBJLB as the input DCB >For DESEREV I get a return code of >X'0C' reason X'421' invalid DCB If any service says that an input is invalid, it is always worth eliminating the possibility that the invocation did not result in providing valid input. If a valid DCB is used, it will not indicate "invalid DCB". A first guess is always that the invocation was off by a level of indirection. Not showing the expansion can lead only to conjecture on the part of the responders, as opposed to leading more directly to something helpful. >As for DESERVE, it would appear that linklist DCB's don't get special >treatment Both BLDL and DESERV do special-case the LNKLST DCB, at least to some extent. BLDL also special cases a value of 0. I don't know about DESERV.
