I'm assuming (and I know the danger of doing that) that you are using TSO in batch since you mention TSOLIB.
Check out the STEPLIB command on www.cbttape.org in file 452. If nothing else you can look at the source code to see how it does it. Lionel B.

I do not have spare parent tasks that I can hang a JLB DCB. It appears that the system is very protective of STEPLIB and will not allow me to dynamically concat datasets to it (even after closing it in the initiator task). I tried allocating the libraries and opened a DCB and placed it in JLB of the initiator task, but no luck. Does reaching TCBJSTCB stop the search of the JLBs? Is there some tricky parameter that will allow the dynamic concatenation of datasets to STEPLIB? -- Binyamin Dissen <bdis...@dissensoftware.com> http://www.dissensoftware.com Director, Dissen Software, Bar & Grill - Israel ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
