That is already available. See, e.g., CICS: //STEPNAME EXEC PGM=DFHSIP,PARM=(START=INITIAL,SIT=6$,SYSIN) Although CICS uses the "reserved" name SYSIN, an application could be coded to accept literally any DDNAME. E.g., CICS could have been coded to use DFHSYSIN. -jc- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
