V4078%TEMPLEVM.BITNET@uga.cc.uga.edu ( Jeff Linder) (01/09/91)
Greetings all, and thanks in advance for your (hopefully speedy) assistance...
I am attempting to write a program in VSPASCAL (under CMS) that sends an
EXEC TELL command using CMS ('EXEC....',rc); By necessity, this TELL command
must contain an address in the format XXXX@XXXXXXX. However, for some reason,
the actual command reduces the address to only the first 8 characters. For
example (V4078@Templevm) is reduced to (V4078@TE). Strangely, if the userid
before the @ is eight characters long, it doesn't truncate...
I checked the userid before it is sent to the cms function, and the command,
and both appear correct on their screen, therefore I am assumin that it has
something to do with the CMS function.
Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have any ideas how to fix?
Please? E-Mail me privately if you are on PASCAL-L, I don't belong. IBM-MAIN
people can reply either way...
