In the example below, the closing backet ) is truncated. //REMVLF EXEC PGM=SDSF,COND=(0,NE) //ISFOUT DD SYSOUT=* //ISFIN DD * /RO *ALL,F CATALOG,NOVLF(CATL.USER0.ALPLEX) ISF015I SDSF COMMAND EXECUTED 'RO *ALL,F CATALOG,NOVLF (CATL.USER0.ALPLEX ' ABRW005 BATCH BATCH RO *ALL,F CATALOG,NOVLF(CATL.USER0.ALPLEX RO T=030,AL01,F CATALOG,NOVLF(CATL.USER0.ALPLEX RO T=030,AL02,F CATALOG,NOVLF(CATL.USER0.ALPLEX -ABRW005C REMVLF 00 133 297 .00 .00 .0 450 BATCH 0 0 0 0 F CATALOG,NOVLF(CATL.USER0.ALPLEX IEC351I CATALOG ADDRESS SPACE MODIFY COMMAND ACTIVE IEC353I CATALOG ADDRESS SPACE MODIFY UNSUCCESSFUL IEC353I INVALID COMMAND FORMAT F CATALOG,NOVLF(CATL.USER0.ALPLEX IEC351I CATALOG ADDRESS SPACE MODIFY COMMAND ACTIVE IEC353I CATALOG ADDRESS SPACE MODIFY UNSUCCESSFUL IEC353I INVALID COMMAND FORMAT </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
