I am working on a problem where I have a loadable table. So far I
have specified NOREUS, OL (Load Only).

In my hazy memory going back into the '70s, I thought there was a
way to mark a module NX (not executable) without having to
specify an unresolvable reference while not using LET.

What I am trying to do is prevent some HLL from being used to
call this table (because they finger checked on the module name)
and passing control to it.

If you LOAD it you get an address.  If you have an address you can
branch to it.

Hence the rub. If it is NX COBOL (or other HLL) shouldn't be able to do a LOAD & BASR.
