Use alternate DDNAME list if invoking a utility that supports it. Use BPXWDYN( 'info ...' ) to extract DSN, VOL, and UNIT, then allocate to a different DDNAME. I suspect DDNAME=, PASS, and referback are implemented in the initiator and unavailable within the jobstep. It's regrettable that alternate DDNAME requires each program to code for it rather than being a part of ATTACH and transparent to the ATTACHed program. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
