Thank you John and apologies for not doing it earlier. We did use GROUPEXTEND initially so OA44222 was in the package already. We also tried today to apply it specifically, but no joy. UA71619 is preq'ed by UA72148 (the fix of OA44222) and it does not apply due to the ISFJREAD compile failure. The thing is that this compile error is quite strange, It is around this CALL macro:
CALL (15),((R14),WORRSUM,=A(L'RECSNO),=A(1),=X'00',=X'00',=X'00',=X'00',=A(0),WORERRMG),LINKINST=BASR,PLIST4=,PLIST8=YES,MF=(E,WORCALL) This call looks "heavy" but there is actually nothing wrong with it. I tried to code it in a small program and it compiles without a problem. In the IBM source, for some reason it takes everything from the second parameter (WORRSUM) on as one long parameter instead of 9, so obviously the resulting LA instruction gets an error. If we are the only ones having this problem, we must be doing something very weird ...

I suggest that you RECEIVE current service and HOLDDATA and use GROUPEXTEND to pull in the fixes. -- John Eells IBM Poughkeepsie ee...@us.ibm.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
