Ah! My mistake, I misremembered the access method(s) mentioned in you note.

Perhaps my note? Not QSAM, but EXCP and BSAM. See the doc talking about the SF64 type on the READ and WRITE macros for BSAM. For EXCP, the 64-bit buffer is pointed to by IDAW or MIDAW. In article <985915eee6984740ae93f8495c624c6c23c0e90...@jscpcwexmaa1.bsg.ad.adp.com> you wrote: > I believe that I saw a statement here recently that at least QSAM buffers can > now be allocated above the 4G bar in 64-bit address space, but I cannot find > the email in which that statement appeared. > Is this a true statement, and if so can someone point me to doc that shows > how and where to specify it? > Is VSAM eligible to have buffers above the 4G bar?
