I don't believe it. The behavior that David describes is very old. Back in the 70's, operators would routinely add a null JCL statement to the end of a tray of JCL to be processed so that the last job would be processed immediately. I just submitted such a job and the contents of JESJCLIN ends with the last statement before the null JCL statement. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
