Since you are creating a process-private logical name table, this table and its logical names are being stored in the same memory area used for all other process-private logical names - in the P1 space of your process. The space allocated for this is controlled by the special SYSGEN parameter called CTLPAGES. So, just as you had to raise PAGEDYN to create more GROUP (or SYSTEM) logical names, you'll have to raise CTLPAGES to create your scads of process-private logical names. = Frank J.
