Hi, I'm having *LDA trouble ...

Problem:
     Pgm situation:
          Pgm 1:    Selecting a group of data
                    --> Defines and writes a value in the *LDA value
(Pos.1020-1024), calling pgm 2

          Pgm 2:    Selecting a single line for processing
                    --> (Doesn't change the *LDA value at all (simply not
defined in the program)), calling pgm 3.

          Pgm 3:  Processing the line defined in pgm 2
                    --> Uses the *LDA (increments the value involved), ending
processing with *LR --> back to pgm 2.
     Work situation:
          Users start with pgm 1, and for the rest of the time, they toggle
between pgms 2 & 3.
          Yet, whenever they leave the stack and have to restart from pgm 1, the
pgm3- *LDA values restart from 0.
                    (Okay, You'd say the *LDA was not transferred)
          But, when the pgm2 - pgm3 toggle restarts ( and pgm-3 is called &
ended) this doesn't  "reset" the *LDA value used in pgm3

     In debugging,
          I found pgm 1 really filling the *LDA with the correct data
          When modifying pgm2 to check the *LDA, this was empty, however
          On the other hand, after the initial "reset" coming from pgm1, pgm 3
DID increment as it should be, indicating a correct find of the *LDA here.
          processing cmds to retrieve & update the *LDA in pgms1 and 3 are
identical ...

Can any of You guys help me ???
Greetings, Michel
