Cave:
Great minds.... By the time I saw your post, I had already sent mine.
Also, someone else suggested a SLIP trap. I like that idea. But
then I've been an IPCS user for decades. And still use it for
diagnosing problems today (after I put in the DD for ABEND-aid to
ignore the ABEND....).

I'm going to take an educated guess since I've been working at solving things
like this myself (on a gotta have it by the end of the week basis -- no
pressure).
But in my case, I'm changing ALC programs to be RENT, AMODE any to give
VSCR (Virt Stor Constraint Relief) so all the COBOL programs can go AMODE
31, RMODE 31.
The COBOL 4.2 code can obtain buffers above the line (AMODE
any/31) while being RMODE 24.
So, the data being passed (header record) could be passed from the FD's
data area, which would have it not-addressable by the ALC program (the data
is pointed to in the above the line buffer).
However, the other records are moved to Working Storage which is below
the line.
Or it could be vice-versa.
But that is the kind of thing I would look for.

Steve Thompson
