Alan,

There may be a way, but eventually, I added a field to a 'generic
definitions' copybook (which I include in all my programs):

D NULLPOINTER@ S * INZ

and then in any of those programs, I can simply say (in debug)

eval myptr = nullpointer@

Clunky, but it works.

I kind of doubt it but I will give it a try. Syntax has to be Eval field =
something.
