Using the following sample JCL jobstream, I received no JCL ERRORs when specifying all combinations of the SYSOUT= parameters, including null values: // SET CL='A' // SET INTRDR='INTRDR' //TESTPROC PROC //S1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14 //DD1 DD SYSOUT=(B,INTRDR) // PEND //JS1 EXEC TESTPROC //S1.DD1 DD SYSOUT=(&CL,&INTRDR) Scott Barry SBBWorks, Inc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
