I'm accustomed to thinking that for all others task DDNAME is equal to DDDEF name (possibly modified by alternate DDNAME list).
But, come to think of it, I don't believe I've ever coded JCLIN other than for binder steps. OK. I RTFM. I see: 9.7.4 "SMP/E V3R4.0 Commands" 9.7.4 Processing copy steps When scanning the copy input, SMP/E assumes the ddnames of the statement are the same as the lowest-level qualifier of the data set referred to. Gasp! TMI! I can think of at least 5 names: 1. The DDDEF name. 2. The LLQ of the DSNAME in the DDDEF (also as catalogued). 3. The DDNAME in the JCLIN DD statement. 4. The LLQ of the DSNAME appearing in the JCLIN DD Statement. 5. The DDNAME in the COPY command in SYSIN. The RM tells me that (clearly) (5) must match either (ambiguously) (4) or (2). May I then assume that (1) and (3) (and one of either (4) or (2)) are irrelevant and can be anything I want? -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
