IBM Mainframe Forum

I have a subroutine written in Assembler that is giving me this abend on a ST to save register 13 to the save area. The sub routine is being called by a CICS Cobol LE program and passed an input parm and output parm. I can't see why the error is happening there is cover for the save area there are two CSECTS with the same name and I was wondering if this could be the cause of the problem.

I have attached a copy of the beginning of the program and if anyone can see something that I am overlooking I would appreciate the help.

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Your attachment appears to be in the newest MS-Word format. Many people do not have the latest MS-Office and will not be able to see the content. Suggest saving using the "older" format.

Do you have an assembler module that has only 1 csect that is working in the same environment? If not, i'd kludge together a small test to make sure the basic code will work. If that works, change one of the csect names so there will not be duplicates. If that doesn't work, we figure out why the small test doesn not work. For the test, i'd recommend a called module that only takes control, moves some/all of the input parm to the output and returns.

Good luck

Thanks for the suggestion I did what you suggested and it seems to work, passing the parameters from another called program. It seem that the original program was written before High Level above the line Assembler and that may be the problem not really sure.

You're welcome - good to hear it is working

If additional info is discovered, posting what you find may help another someday.

Happy New Year!
