I may be wrong, but I'll bet that "dynamic" adds to LPA fail if they
would require an increase to common storage. Otherwise, it sounds quite
dangerous and might lead to unscheduled IPLS.

Greetings,
I am in need of NaviQuest SMF Records to Test DAF.
"SMF record type 127 is recorded by exit routine
IGDACSSC. The SMF record contains the ACS variables
which are used to generate ACS routine test cases.
The test cases are generated by NaviQuest option 1.3."

No! Missed the point! If I wanted to display WOMBAT, I could
simply do
WRITE WOMBAT
couldn't I? The objective is to assign to or display the
variable whose (unspecified) name is in &COLOR. The Rexx
equivalent would be:
interpret color "= 'WOMBAT
I'm convinced that a clist array variable could be achieved since it's only
an issue of symatic expression. The real question is time, cost and user
acceptance. - Paul Hanrahan

Let me see if I understand this:
SET RED = 'WOMBAT'
SET COLOR = RED
PRINT &&COLOR/* Prints 'WOMBAT', Doesn't it? */
The CLIST syntax to display WOMBAT would be as follows:
SET RED = WOMBAT /* No quotes required */
SET COLOR = &RED

If you have 100 files I personally would do it to DASD and then one run

You have to have a significant E/C transfer rate for this to be true.

Yes. For an address space the shared system area is common to all users

Marco,
You did not mention the platform you are on so,
VSE/ESA - IDCAMS - CANCEL STEP or CANCEL JOB
z/OS - has a CANCEL but did NOT implement the CANCEL JOB. They claim
conditional JCL is the answer - what a waste of key strokes.
