Might one conclude that the substitution works just fine, but that the

It is the user's responsibility to provide to the application only what it
can handle. The system will not prevent it (except for authorized cases
where providing too much data can be a system integrity exposure for
incorrectly written programs).

Peter, I will use your post to give an update on this strangeness.
The two JOBs in question are using IKJEFT1B.
Once I got this working for the one JOB, I did a copy and paste
to the second JOB. For these two JOBs the step in question is
using IKJEFT1B, and ISPSTART is used to run a REXX.
The second JOB fails. And the Logging DD doesn't get written to.
I'm dropping this problem (PARMDD) for now, to focus on the REXX
logic issue (submitting compiles with wrong compile options) that
was the catalyst for this.
Regards,
Steve Thompson
