Hi, Bob

Thank you for your reply.I want to make sure something.
I noticed that PEP itself was a kind of (a group of ?) internal object
(s)(system program or procedure). It seems it calls a user program that
we expected. IOW, it indicates the main program that you expected or a
kind of bridge.... Am I right?

When you execute CRTPGM A ...ENTMOD(B) and if you call program A,the
Module B will be called (activated). Am I right?

TIA

Regards

PS

I ordered your book <g>.
