I don't know whether this is still the case (it was on about V2R3 ...) but
we had a big problem at one stage when this kept happening (and in fact the
jobs wouldn't close down whatever we did and needed ENDJOBABN). We checked
and all the applications were monitoring properly for errors. It turned out
to be an attention key handler that was capable of returning an *ESCAPE
message if it experienced a display error (like someone switching a screen
off ...). The attention key handler appeared to go into a horrendous loop
that was impossible to close down in any way except ENDJOBABN. Moral - if
an attention key handler experiences a screen error, it must end normally.

Tom,
Aside from Don's motivational speech <big grin> look at your programs;
especially the one giving the error.  Your I/O should trap errors.  In RPG,
you should be putting an indicator in the LO columns or using the (E)
opcode
extender.  In CL, use MONMSG.  Once you've trapped the error, don't ignore
it - do something with it, even if it's DUMP and terminate.  The
post-mortem
is valuable in and of itself.
