I meant IIRC INTERPRET returns the lowercase values of variables in
uppercase.
AFAIK "ALLOCATE DD(SYSIN) DSN(*)" is not in *CLIST* format - and I have
no idea what that would have to do with preserving lowercase chars.
A *CLIST* format would be something like "ALLOC FI(SYSIN)
DA('SYS1.PARMLIB(IEAAPF00)') SHR KEEP".
BTW As I said, I have had no access to a mainframe for 8+ years. But
feel free to verify my adhoc sample *CLIST* code if you have access to a
mainframe.
Cheers, over and out.
