I understood that. 5) So, is it _required_ that TSSOPARM have and "END" command in it so that you don't get an I/O error reading past end of file? Not trying now, but I'm not an I/O error but a wild branch, since the access method will branch to whatever address it finds in DCBEODAD, doesn't it? >My plan is to remove the "hard coded" allocation of SYS1.PARMLIB with the appropriate use of IEFPRMLB to allocate & free the "system PARMLIB concatenation". I think this is a good plan.
