Is it better to define a data area with the *DTAARA    DEFINE, or is
better do it in the D specs? Or is it just a matter of preference? I've
noticed that when it is done in the D specs, the program accesses it
with out the IN op code. We're getting errors because a data area is
locked when other programs go to access the data area.
