PACK Status to do with jobname length? I must be missing something... Lindy Mayfield, Ok, I submitted a job from an edit session (ISPF =3.4), using your exact copy: EDIT ......JCL($IEBGEN) - 01.22 Command ===> sub;can ****** ***************************** Top of Data ********** 000210 //Z JOB TPX,'RUN JOB', 000220 // CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=X,NOTIFY=&SYSUID 001100 //* 001200 //PEST EXEC PGM=IEBGENER 001300 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* 001302 //SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=* 001400 //SYSUT1 DD * 001500 PEST ****** **************************** Bottom of Data ******** IKJ56250I JOB Z(J0122913) SUBMITTED *** Failed with JCL error, $HASP105 Z -- EXPECTED CONTINUATION NOT RECEIVED $HASP119 Z DELETED - MISSING CONTINUATION, RC=3 IEFC452I Z - JOB NOT RUN - JCL ERROR 023 $HASP250 Z PURGED -- (JOB KEY WAS D2C16A8A) so I redo with //Z JOB TPX,'RUN JOB', // CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=X,NOTIFY=&SYSUID No weird prompting, just a submit without complaints about jobname length.

How or with what are you submitting that? Are you using the TSO SUBMIT command? That command has this keyword 'JOBCHAR('CHARACTERS')'. > ...

Look at SUBMIT exit (IKJEFF10). That is if you use TSO/E SUBMIT, not the SUBMIT command during an edit session.
