anyone using PROGRAM STATUS clause in SPECIAL-NAMES?

Is anyone using the PROGRAM STATUS clause in SPECIAL-NAMES? I can't get the
program to populate the data area I reference. When I force a dump using
QlnDumpCobol, the area shows up in the dump but is not populated. The COBOL
Reference says the that the area is populated "when an error occurs..." but
does not define what "error" is. Can't I force it to be populated? There is
very good information there that I would like to take advantage of in the
program.

Anyone got a working example they would care to share? TIA
