Re: OT - CICS Problem

Yes I've looked at both those references plus one other (I think your first 
one
is the Application Programmers Guide - the SC33-1687 - I've also looked at
Application Reference - Identifying SPOOL file from which I got an example o
f
code - thats the SC33-1688). I have batch JCL using the the parameters so I
know what those are.

It's something to do with the keyword (value) set up that I think is wrong b
ut
I've tried
01  FORM-STUFF.
05  FILLER   PIC 9(9) COMP VALUE 82.
05  FILLER   PIC X(17) VALUE 'FORMDEF (INV4F) '.
05   FILLER  PIC X(17) VALUE 'PAGEDEF (INV4F) ',
etc - there's more to it.

I'll e-mail the exact code from work tomorrow.

And how do you allocate that storage - and how do you set up the pointer to 
the
storage (and which compiler are you using - as pointer facilities may vary f
rom
COBOL compiler to compiler)

Bill and I have been e-mailing back and forth from my work e-mail until I
crashed the spooler last w.

Hopefully I can get back into the test system Monday and try the lastest and
greatest.

Joe Z - I tried to e-mail you my code but it got rejected as an invalid e-ma
il
address :(

oops -- my bad -- I think that was intentional somewhere...

Try:

joe at zitzelberger dot net

Thanks Joe but Bill and I have got it working.

He gave me a few other references in the manuals and after some hit and miss
 it
worked.  It was interesting that I had missed the references he sited
completely.
I thought I had done a complete search of the manual - ah well.

Now I have some data issues to take care of and a few tws of the output a
nd
this program will be ready to go.

Thanks Bill for your help.  You too Joe even if you never did get a chance t
o
look things over, I appreciate the offer emensely (your e-mail saved for fut
ure
reference :) )
