So if the system so "silently ignores" a data set containing a program object I intended to use, but a later catenand contains an object similarly named but different version, I'll execute the wrong version.
Terrible design. o Hardly helps to add a dummy final step with DISP=SHR (OLD guarantees failure) because another job may have started to WAIT for that DSN. o EXEC sorely needs explicit pathing (EXEC PGM=data.set.name(member), not merely the referback form). -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
