After having spoken to Peter Relson via email (thank you Peter) it turned out to be a user error. Big surprise :)
I was using a single parameter area for both the PAUSE and XFER. Pretty obvious once it is pointed out to you. Pause or XFER is not complete until it returns to you and it needs the parameter area until then. Giving the TCB and SRB their own parameter list areas solved the problem. ________________________________ Christopher Y.
