Re: Data area question

Way back when, when I found that a called program couldn't
access the local data area when the caller defined it with
UDS, I decided to just use *DTAARA DEFINE, and "in" the *LDA
at the beginning, update it when needed, and so on.

My personal style has been to define the *ENTRY PLIST at the
first of the C-specs (soon to move to D-specs for new
programs at least), then data area definitions, then
KLIST's. The new code specs will change this somewhat, but
definitions are mostly at the top, which seems to be where
maintainers will first look for them.
