THe program runs, but it looks wrong. Can someone explain to me how to fix it and what is wrong? Thanks

You lie. That "program" does not run; the assembly will always fail on the WTO OEARN statement.

Unlikely. Very unlikely.

If you find and read a z/OS Assembler Services Reference manual (hint: try http://www.ibm.com and search for the title), you will find that WTO has some requirements and limitations that you are totally ignoring. If you get anything from your WTO instructions, it is pure luck.

Hello,

And be aware that your topic-timestamps will likely be different as the times i see are as of my local time. . .

Thanks. Well, that's funny. So, Deathwish, look for those times pretending you are on GMT. Or re-read everything.
