Seymour, I sense some crossed-wires here.
The OP was originally trying to perform a FIND using the TCBJLB DCB address for the current TCB for a module name hoping that it would be found in a TSOLIB declared dataset. What I attempting to explain, was that other applications (eg ISPF) can setup their own TASKLIB for subordinate tasks so that the TCBJLB DCB will NOT point to the TSOLIB DCB. As to why the OP wanted to do this - I am unsure. As to if FIND would work against a DCB in TCBJLB - I am also unsure as I have never attempted it myself - hence my earlier suggestion that the OP allocate his own TASKLIB and use its DCB address as input to FIND as a test before trying anything with TCBJLB.
