No. All COBOL stuff at IBM has to go through something called the "COBOL Standards Committee", and they don't like platform specific instructions. As you well know, COBOL is a truly portable language. *NOT!!

Is there a less overhead utilizing manner in which to change a *DTAARA from within a COBOL program than using the QCMDEXC? Maybe some similar way to the way RPG400 does it by using the IN opcode then the OUT opcode? Thanks! Tim Truax :-)
