Why a PITA? If you are RENT, you will need to GETMAIN some storage. To create a DCB, you will need storage below the line. Big deal. Unless your program's storage requirements are large, you could make all of your GETMAINed storage below the line. Can you run both programs in one step? Perhaps the first one calls the second, or they are both called by a third program. The third program can pass an area for the first to save the info and the second to retrieve it. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
