RE: Why is RESET not allowed for a DS that is based?

I'm not sure....I'm not a person who programs compilers ;-)

But sounds reasonable...maybe one fo the IBMers can clue us in...

Could be, but how hard would it be to check to see if the pointer is set
to a null and not process it?

One wild guess...a pointer can be null...even if a DS is based upon
it...

So where & what would you initialize..I'm guessing that's why you
can't...

Which also begs the question:  Why is inz not allowed in a based data
structure?
RNF3724: Keyword is not allowed for subfield in based data structure;
keyword is ignored.
