Well, for some value of "none of this will work". If you are invoking an EXEC that you have loaded into memory then it is your responsibility to supply the info for Parse Source in the EXEC_BLK. Put the appropriate info into into fields EXEC_DSNPTR and EXEC_DSNLEN. In my experience you don't have to follow any particular rules, i.e. it doesn't have to look like an actual DSNAME as long as it doesn't exceed 54 characters. If that's not enough, you can pass up to 4096 characters in EXEC_EXTNAME_PTR, EXEC_EXTNAME_LEN. I have not played with these latter fields.
