Any standard logic text establishes that
o AND, inclusive OR, and NOT are together universal,
o NOR alone is universal, and
o NAND alone is universal.
Thus, in an obvious notation,
XOR(a,b) =df (a | b) (¬(a b))
What is all the pother about?
John Gilmore, Ashland, MA 01721 - USA
I would assume the pother is because OIL and NIL are macros that provide
or and and processing with serialization. Your notation fails to provide
serialization. It should be relatively easy to create an XIL macro based
on OIL or NIL however.

A weird way would be:
_OR OPSYN OR
OR OPSYN XR
OIL ...
OR OPSYN _OR
This changes the OR instruction in the OIL macro into an XR instruction. Of
course, this also ASSuMEs that OIL macro will never use more than one OR
instruction. If you want, you can copy the OIL macro to your own MACLIB

Are you using BUFNO or other type of buffering to help this process? Is it a
straight sequential read or how are processing the records?
What is the abend? Is it an MVS abend or application abend? Sometimes tuning
the JCL or process can avoid abends - depending on what they are.

Ron,
Your application people MUST first add checks in their program(s) for valid
numeric data (ALWAYS do this when reading data supplied by outside vendors and
customers; trust but verify is the golden rule) and automatically skip those
records. Another good practice for bad data records is
