o Isn't the argument to EX a DDNAME, not a DSNAME? o What causes that PDS to be allocated? That was the OP's question. Or is the assumption that there's an optional 'prefix.SYSPROC(LOGON)' and that failure of the EXEC command is tolerable. >it would exec that clist and in that clist you could allocate the >libraries to your liking.

That's fine if the "*YOU*" involved is the arbiter of those "local standards"; not so much for a lowly end user applications programmer with no authority to modify a logon procedure. But on experiment I believe the COMMAND field meets the OP's needs: o It's controlled by the end user. o It persists from session to session. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
