I think you are right. I know that I always code TIME=NOLIMIT or 1440 in all STCs. Even ones that I know are short lived. I am unsure if it applies to a UNIX address space which comes about via a fork(). I think that fork() forces the equivalent of TIME=1440 on every address space which it creates.

Sorry about the PPT stuff. I was remembering the SYST entry in the PPT. That one parameter only applies when the program is running in a "single step STC". > > Kind Regards - Terry > > Director > KMS-IT Limited -- There is nothing more pleasant than traveling and meeting new people!
