I don't think that AMODE 24 in assembler does anything more useful than tell the binder the program must be linked AMODE 24 (not 31/64). Mixed AMODE load modules is a bad thing and very rarely needed. IBM specifically excludes load module attributes for ALIAS names because it is more complex and requires extra coding. Why should IBM encourage people to write AMODE 24 code when the goal is to eliminate it as much as possible? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
