Hi everybody, I'm trying to read byte-by-byte (or groups) a RECFM=U dataset with a READ macro.
I read the post-answer by Steve Myers: http://ibmmainframes.com/about63436.html and everything was ok up to a small change in order to read some bytes and not the entire block. READ IDECB,SF,IDCB,(10),'S' everything is OK READ IDECB,SF,IDCB,(10),4 S001 What i obtain is a S001-1 IEC020I 001-1,J48017J,ST020,INPUT,A477,PRZZ9F, IEC020I JZPT.SQBN0G.J48017.SMF30.U IEC020I NO ERROR HANDLING, (SYNAD), EXIT SPECIFIED It seems that specifying the number of bytes is allowed for RECFM=U. Any hint ? To be clear, I've a file with a VBS format (BDW+RDW+data) in a undefined format and need to go back to a VBS dataset. Thanks a lot. Massimo
