Arnold,
Thank you very much for your help, I appreciate it.
When talking about performance I also thouth about key "life management"
like new key, key change, key delete. I don't expect it would be very
frequent operation, but even that in multi-milion (10-20M rather than
2-3M) key database
I still don’t see St. Louis in the SHARE app. Is that available yet or

Use REXX syntax and a JCL host command with JCL-like semantics:
/* REXX */
arg String /* From SUBMIT or start task command. */
"jcl job myjob: (acct),'john smith',class=t,msgclass=h,notify="userid()
"jcl exec pgm=myprog,parm="date("s")
"jcl sysprint: dd sysout=*"

If it is documented (and I don't have time to pull down the

The C:D change team and the dev guys know the internals of the

I have a TSO TEST breakpoint with a call subcommand when I return to the

I like this up to a point - I would prefer to have an execution command and
then be able to do if/then/else and another step, etc.
Or just use standard TSO allocation and program call syntax, perhaps simplified
to be more JCL 'like'

The 'error' message, if that is what you want to call it, claims invalid

Banging head against the wall removes the pain of trying to figure this out but
