That seems to me to be an unusual record format for someone to use writing spool data. Perhaps the error is that the program issuing the OPEN to try to read it is saying RECFM=VS when it's really just V? (Note, too, that there are two other potential program errors: specifying RECFM=D, or specifying both ANSI and Machine control characters. But all of these really seem to indicate an error in the program, and I'd say that the program author needs to examine the dump and figure it out.) -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
