You are really good actually what I wanted to do was to copy over a variable 
name and call IKJCT441 to dump the variable 

Hoping you can answer two follow up questions regarding tso test and clist 

First where did you see this clist variable assignment format 

I thought = operator was just a compare  
And guess you cannt use x’ cause clist unlike Rexx var only like printable 
character values for variables 

Second if I getmain 20 bytes with test subcommand and equate it to workarea and 
want to copy data to bytes 5 - 8 

Can reference to area in copy as workarea+4 

Though it passes the syntax check for test 

Doesn’t seem like it works

Forgot for the  first to get the name of the variable in workarea I used 
workarea=c’name’ with ampersand it puts a curly brace in 
Thank you
