cost savings, and intended for developers and such is a wonderful idea.
It never felt right for me to think of running z/OS software and production
business applications on an x86 box
I would enter 30FF for a valid UCB Address (not x'30ff' but c'30ff').
Unfortunately, C'30FF' is much different.
You have to convert to HEX to do the comparison.
And, I have not been able to see how to do it in RAW panels.
You need an exit, or a wrapper, to convert to C2X and do the comparison.
Whether or not you have access to 3270 IBMLink may be dependent on your
