Fair enough. Another option available to an assembly language program ... (and superior IMHO to trying to run SUBMIT from a program).

That is what SUBMIT does under the covers. SUBMIT surely uses the VSAM-like (RPL) JES interface so that it can get the jobid upon ENDREQ, which it reports to the user. Not that QSAM doesn't work just fine, but there is no direct way to get the jobid as part of submitting. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
