Just out of curiosity, wouldn't it be faster and safer to create very short
versions of your routines. Have the COBOL routine just

I would think so, the logic to me is sound..Some LE supported languages do it
automatically, I.E. Cobol, I think C or C++ does..
If it doesn't it should for sure.

Charles,
It sounds like IMHO, that IBM needs to have build or review Language Ref or
Guides. I run into the same sort of issues. Especially, when you trying to
shoot a bug or develop something new. LE services or function doc is getting
better for sure. But mixing and matching functionality

code. Where you cloned someone’s code and made changes or created it or read
manuals and did one of the above.

Are you using TCPIP ? If so when you init the stack, if no OMVS segment exists
it will fail with a bad return code.
We run under LE also.

Todd is right that's another way. Check the ACEE used by STC and see if it has
the OMVS seg.

I was referring to how we use SP231. If I read correctly dataspaces are
associated with address spaces.
If the address allocating, using the dataspace ends/terminates, that dataspace
is gone ? Is this not true
I want to make sure I understand it correctly

We don't use SP 241, we use sp 231 and have the customer allocate it.

I have a quick 64bit storage question, I need to allocate 64bit storage that's
not attached to a TCB, much like sp 231 IS ?
an I do this ? I know dataspaces have to be attached.

Rob,
Thanks I took a look ..new to 64 bit storage, started looking at MVS Extended
Addressability as well as the Assembler macro manuals.
