IEBDG definitely isn't an easy way to do it, but if you really want to use it, then the following works: FD NAME=BYTE1,LENGTH=1,STARTLOC=1,PICTURE=3,B'161' FD NAME=BYTE2,LENGTH=1,STARTLOC=2,PICTURE=3,B'178' CREATE QUANTITY=1,NAME=(BYTE1,BYTE2) Regards, Allen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
