Got it. JOBDEF RANGE and OPTIONS JOBNO. I see a similar thread I started in 2016. Here is the problem I am wrestling with. QA is testing a product I am responsible for. They specify JOBID(FOOBAR). The product correctly does not find anything. QA wants to know why it doesn't say "invalid Job ID" rather than "not found."
In the particular case I think the tester meant JOBNAME(FOOBAR). "Invalid format JOBID" certainly would have been more helpful for the user, but I guess that is not possible.

Where would I find a more formal description of that capability than what I just wrote? For JES2? For JES3? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
