Phil, For your last question, take a look at the JCL Reference. There's a chapter on started tasks that talks about some of this stuff. (By the way, the doc uses the term "started job" for what you call a "proc with a JOB card", and "started proc" for the not-a-JOB case.) You might want to experiment with S MYPROC,JOBNAME=XXXX, and try running a batch job that has a step that EXECs a proc.
