What is 128M virtual memory in these days? SHOWzOS V713 and STRING64 will save some storage.
I always use REGION=0M for my assembly. Tnx will keep an eye on PK09700.

The problem surfaced in 1.5 because SYSUT1 was eliminated, presumably in the interest of performance. Unfortunately, some gigantic programs require gigantic region sizes to assemble entirely in memory. The program that caused me grief? SHOWMVS! I got around the problem by specifying REGION=128M, way larger than any assembly I've ever done. At the same time, I began tracking open APAR PK09700, which suggested that IBM might reinstate SYSUT1. Lo and behold, PK09700 closed today. There's a new parm to control use of SYSUT1 and some new messages. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
