The Binder manual Appendix A says All of the services of the linkage editor and batch loader can be performed by the program management binder. We recommend that you convert to exclusive use of the binder. However, if you do need to use the linkage editor or batch loader, most of the information in this document is applicable with a few differences. This appendix describes those differences.

In particular, the Binder is perfectly capable of producing a load module, which is stored in a PDS, or a program object, stored in a PDSE or Unix file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
