Hello Robert,
Finally, someone who like DOS/VS as much as me! :-)? Glad you like my videos, there should be one soon about VSAMIO on DOS/VS.

Hi René,
Thanks for the help. I haven't had the chance to go back and retrofit the VSAMIO stuff into my program, but your example compiles and runs cleanly, so I think that's the ticket.

Re: DOSVS R34 Manuals?
Sure, you can find it here:
http://bitsavers.org/pdf/ibm/370/DOS_VS/

Re: DOSVS R34 Manuals?
The manuals issue is resolved.
I've also created a tape using VM (TAPE/VMFPLC2) and DOS/VS (RPG).
Thanks.
