One caution: Make sure the DD name variable is blank-padded to 8 characters or DEVTYPE will not work correctly (the trailing "\0" from strcpy will give you grief).

The trouble with us darn mainframers -- we don't do change very well. __asm came along to C++ somewhere around V2R2 or V2R3. Thanks. I will have to give DEVTYPE a shot and figure out how to translate it into __asm. I've never done __asm (for the aforementioned reasons). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
