If I had said, couldn''t you have a TSO user run the COBOL program, that might be architecture. But all my suggestion is is a JCL change (as I suspect you know), but perhaps others in your organization don't understand? Instead of // EXEC PGM=cobol-program,PARM='whatever' // DD statements here you go with // EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,PARM='CALL *(cobol-program)' ''whatever''' //SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSTSIN DD DUMMY // DD statements here The COBOl program should never notice the difference. -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
