RE: Using a Data Area in CMD Statements

Ken,

Exactly!  I'm familiar with how this works, but have never seen it done.  I've 
never done it myself and was wondering if anyone out there had a good example 
they could share with us as to how it's done.

Thanks,
  Ted

The DTAARA keyword, along with PGM and FILE, is only for cross-referencing
information.  Anything you want to do with the data area specified on the
command you must do in your command processing program.
