I want to set a symbol to a value with lowercase letters and too long to go on one line. (The ultimate destination of the symbol is substitution into a SYSIN file, but that is not where the problem is.)
So I am doing // EXPORT SYMLIST=* // SET SYM1='blah,blah,blah' // SET SYM2=',foo,foo,foo' // SET LONGSYM=&SYM1.&SYM2 ... //PARMDD DD *,SYMBOLS=JCLONLY MYPARM(&LONGSYM) /* I am getting errors on the SET LONGSYM: IEFC620I UNIDENTIFIABLE CHARACTER b ON THE SET STATEMENT, etc. If I quote the &SYM1.&SYM2 then no substitution is performed and I end up with LONGSYM being literally "&SYM1.&SYM2". Any ideas?
