RE: Using a Data Area in CMD Statements

["Ted Barry" <TBARRY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ken,

Exactly!  I'm familiar with how this works, but have never seen it done.  I've 
never done it myself and was wondering if anyone out there had a good example 
they could share with us as to how it's done.

Thanks,
  Ted

The DTAARA keyword, along with PGM and FILE, is only for cross-referencing
information.  Anything you want to do with the data area specified on the
command you must do in your command processing program.
