I just ran into something tryng to assemble...I have a program that I am assembling, and in my SYSLIB I have PDS-1 that uses a blocksize of 3120 and PDS-2 that uses 32720 (I didn't create this!).
When I run with PDS-1 ahead of PDS-2, I get error messages ASMA057E Undefined operation code... When I run with PDS-2 ahead of PDS-1, it works fine. If this is no longer an issue, shouldn't IBM's own code work correctly?
