Peter, I agree, since I have been around IBM hardware/software 40+ yrs. My chief complaint is samples. I came up through the ranks the hardway, OJT (on the Job Training ), night school while i was in Operations. So I spend a lot of time digging for examples. Recently, a good example , I am working with another Vendor's exit which i am very familiar with and it is re-entrant. I understand the re-entrant part but I have to add displays ( WTOs ). I dont have complaints again IBM, rarely, best people I ever worked with, my issue is howtos. Working examples which I can refer to and understand (prototype) before I start writing code. When to use the execute form of the macro vs list, also let me add I was never an applications program, i was an am a Systems Programmer, so that slants things a tad. Can you offer or anyone offer a place to start looking for examples when one gets into a situation like exits and wtos ..??
