Anything in column 72.

For TSO the +|- doesn't have to be in 72.

Hi Suresh,
X in Column 72 applies to Assembler, JCL (optionally) and "old" utility
programs (e.g. IEHPROGM).
For more modern utilities (e.g. supplied by DFSMS like DFSMSDss), the
TSO convention is used (either '+' or *'-'*).

Regards,
David
