Good catch Gil!
The one thing I forgot to say was that the member being included needs a
statement like this as the first entry:
// DD *,SYMBOLS=JCLONLY
Sorry for the confusion.

Colin,
I do it using IEBGENER:
// JCLLIB ORDER=pds.with.members.to.use
//SETSTEP EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSINDD DUMMY
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD *,SYMBOLS=JCLONLY
// INCLUDE MEMBER=x
//SYSUT2 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=dataset.to.contain.resolved.member
I don't know if
en they load it for passing to the SYNAD exit, or

To answer Seymour J. Metz's question first, it's specified in the DCB.
To answer Charles Mills' question, the module is defined as RMODE 24, AMODE
ANY, so the I/O was issued in 31-bit mode.
Which now rings a bell, I, too, vaguely remember that SYNAD is called in
the A-Mode of the code issuing
Hello All,
I have been under the impression for decades that SYNAD exits are called in
24-bit mode.
Recently I have been having problems in one of my programs.
The problem goes as follows:
I am reading an input file that is defined as:
//INPUTDD *,SYMBOLS=JCLONLY
OUTPUT DATASET *other
Thanks everyone for your information.
I have looked at named tokens and it appears they just might do what I need.

My apologies, I didn't mean to stir up the hornet's nest of opinions on the
viability of my question.
I will "grossly" explain what I want to do.
I am not interested in other methods, I have other methods, but I am
interested in this method the most, if it can be done.
Program A executes and
Hello All,
Thanks in advance for anyone that can shed light on the subject.
Is there a mechanism for setting a JCL type variable from within a program?
In other words, I would like to do this:
// SET XYZ='ABC and DEF'
from within a program.
Again, thanks for anyone that can shed light on
I'm on 2.5 and just used ! today.

Consider something like the private module parm of SLIP. You would use
something like P=TOROLABA.
Do you get registers when you get the S0C4?
If you do, find the one that contains the base address and use
Hi Peter,
This works:
STR14,0(,R13)
JAS R14,*+4+8
DCC'$SL$',Y(x,y)
L R14,0(,R13)
and I can do DA=(14R?,EQ,5BE2D35B)
Where x is a module's identification number and y is the nth macro
expansion for my SLIP trigger macro.
What I wanted to

Hello All,
I have a question regarding the SLIP command.
In my DA= parameter I have used things like 2r? to reference register 2,
etc.
Is there a symbol for the PSW?
I have tried DA=(PSW?+0,EQ,*myvalue*) and it tells me the DA parm is bad.
Thanks,
Chuck
*I have not tried this*, but could you use SET FILE-VAR TO ADDRESS OF
FILE-NAME?
Does that make FILE-VAR point to the DCB?
If so, then, with the file closed, move in your DD name, open, write, close.
Rinse and repeat.
Like I said, I don't know if this will work, but it's worth a try.

I have not seen this exactly like what you describe, but I do have some
thoughts.
The pointer you are using for the ALLOCATE, does it have a value clause,
specifically VALUE NULL.
If not, the pointer could have an unknown value that does not compare equal
to NULL so you would attempt to FREE it.

Are you doing a call literal or call dataname?

EQUALS was not specified in my SORT parms, but it was listed in the OPTIONS
display of the output as EQUALS=Y.
I am in the process of getting the program rerun with NOEQUALS specified.

Hello Listers,
I've searched the IBM-MAIN archives and found nothing to help me so I
thought I'd better ask the question.
I am trying to sort roughly 4295217295, records using DFSORT.
DFSORT issues a message that I have exceeded the sort input record maximum.
It appears that this maximum is
