RE: MCH1201 (Rcvr too small) on an _if_ statement???

Ok, sorry for the confusion.

The IBM manual says to use 2b0.

Paul's book says to use 5i0.

I submitted feedback for the IBM manual.

I'm not sure I understand. What's wrong with using 5i0 that you
submitted feedback on the manual?

Personally, it's my opinion that nobody should EVER use the 'B' data
type. Indeed, this thread would not exist if the OP had used the I data
type.

So if Paul Conte says 'use 5i0', I'd say he's right!

I submitted feedback for manual.
