This sounds like an overlay problem. How is the DATA field defined?

        Subject:        Weird LDA stuff...

        I have a program that's doing some funky stuff...  It's not a new
program,
        but it needed a recompile and ever since is behaving very badly.
I've had
        it in debug, and this is what I've tracked it to...  A 14 byte
character
        array w/ 998 elements is getting loaded with at least the first 146
bytes of
        the job's LDA when  the program reads a record from a dataqueue.
The
        dataqueue has nothing to do with the character array.  When a value
is put
        in the array, it is then overlaid by the value of the *LDA the next
time the
        receive dtaq command is executed...  Nothing is overlapping in the D
        Specs...  No sub-fields w/ the same name... Any thoughts?
         
        This is the code that's executed where things go astray...

        C* Read Record from Data Queue                                    
        C                   MOVE      *ZEROS        WAIT              5 0 
        C                   CALL      'QRCVDTAQ'                          
        C                   PARM                    QNAME                 
        C                   PARM                    QLIB                  
        C                   PARM                    QLEN                  
        C                   PARM                    DATA                  
        C                   PARM                    WAIT
