Thanks Peter 

                ALIAS are all CSECTS I did get it working

                   Thanks you

As all of the responders have made clear, CSECT and ENTRY in the assembler
source are not directly relevant.
Only NAME and ALIAS (typically via binder control statements) are relevant.
CSECT and ENTRY are data that the binder uses to know to which location the
ALIAS is to apply. If the ALIAS name is found as a CSECT / ENTRY, then the
binder uses that location. If the ALIAS name is not a CSECT / ENTRY, it
defaults to using the module entry (as defined or defaulted by the binder).
There are limits to the number of aliases the binder will let you create. 

Then IDENTIFY can add to the mix. There are no practical limits to the
number of IDENTIFY's you can go (obviously at some point you run out of
storage to hold CDEs).

The approach to IDENTIFY a GETMAINed area is not a programming interface. 
Use at your own risk.
