I will try tomorrow to see if it makes a difference. However, as I wrote the actual code does format the expected values which I retrieve via EVAL and EVALSYM. EVALSYM is used to retrieve the address behind the "current" address in symbol X. EVALs start at this address. But as I write this, I would be rather surprise when code inside the EXEC(( )) would influence the surrounding RUNCHAIN. The ADDRESS, LINK and CHAIN parameters are all RUNCHAIN parameters. An additional LIST would write something to the output which is not wanted. I wanted but forgot to mention that a similar pair, although CLISTs, does work as expected. However, there is a CBFORMAT inside the EXEC(( )) CLIST. Maybe this really makes the difference. Curious to see what happens when I add a LIST tomorrow. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
