Okay, I found the answer to #1. IEHLIST. Boy is that a blast from the past.

That in turn reveals that the entry address turned to 0 on the IEBCOPY of
the PDSE program object to a PDS load module. IEBCOPY kept the offset of the
main entry point but lost the offset of the alias entry point. Any way to
prevent that?

Subject: Two related alias entry address questions

1. Is there a way to display the entry point address of a load module member
of a PDS? ISPF 3.1 shows Size, TTR, AM, RM, etc. but not the entry address.
The member in question is actually an alias FWIW.

2. The reason I ask is that I am trying to track down the following problem.
Perhaps someone knows the answer. I have a PDSE program object FOO with an
alias of BAR. BAR's entrypoint is *not* at offset 0 into the load module. I
copy the program object and alias to a PDS load module and then TSO XMIT it.
I FTP the XMIT file to another LPAR. I TSO RECEIVE the XMIT file into a
dataset. When I LOAD BAR I see the wrong entrypoint, an entrypoint of 0.
Does anyone know what I have to do to preserve the entrypoint? (I ask
question 1 because I am guessing at the problem, and do not know at which
stage of the process the entry offset got lost.)
