Re: Simple newbie file tailoring question
you could possibly use alternate tabbing (note the exclamation point) in your skeleton: )TBA 49 //STEP1 EXEC PGM=MYPROG,REGION=4M,PARM='ZUSER!' Thanks, Frank Merlenbach [EMAIL PROTECTED] IBM Mainframe Discussion List IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU wrote on 04/30/2008 11:54:37 AM: Anyone, I'm working with a skeleton that generates an EXEC statement that looks like this: //STEP1 EXEC PGM=MYPROG,REGION=4M,PARM='ZUSER' I wish to pass the value in ZUSER to MYPROG, but I see that if the TSO userid is 8 characters long, the trailing blanks from the ZUSER variable are truncated, and are not being passed to my assembler application. I.e., if the userid is USER1, I get a 5-byte parm string instead of an 8-byte parm string padded with blanks (or nulls, or anything). Is there a way to prevent the truncation, so that my application always receives a full eight-byte value, preferably blank-padded? Thank you!

Giltner, Jr. [ snip ] I can't remember the whole thing, but I believe that Grace Hopper used to use different rope lengths to show how long, or short various measurements of time were: a nano second vs. a full second. Hmmm. A nanosecond is one billionth of a second, so the long rope would have to be a billion times longer that the short one. Given that the SI definition of a metre is approximately one ten-millionth the distance from a pole to the equator along a meridian, if the short rope was only one millimetre long, the long one would have to be a thousand kilometres long. That would make a pretty big pile of rope. -jc- -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html When she did her presentation everybody got a nanosecond (piece of wire roughly 11 inches long) then she showed us a microsecond (a coil of wire rooughly 1000 feet long it mad an impressive thump when it hit the table).
