John Paul,

you need to get copies of the Debug Tool Manuals.
The customization guide talks about the EQACUIDF parm.
Keywords in your search thru the manuals are:
EQACUIDF
NATLANG

Start with chapter "2.5 Changing the default and allowable values in EQACUIDF (optional)" of the customization guide.

SC19-1075-02 z/OS Debug Tool Utilities & Adv Features
SC19-1074-02 Summary of commands and built-in functions
SC19-1072-02 Coverage Utility User's Guide & Messages
GC19-1073-02 Reference and messages
SC19-1071-02 User's Guide

They are all under the ega7.... book name.
Here is a link for the SC19-10 books, and here is a link for GC19-107 book.

If you just click on the links, they will drive you to a JAVA assisted screen.

Instead, you should 'right-click' the ADOBE ICON to the left of each manual and 'SAVE AS...', which will allow you to download the PDFs.
If you have the softcopy reader installed at your site/PC, you can download the softcopy books (.boo).

it isn't working, i tried to insert the parameters that is on my jcl, and it only produces an error.

is the steps on the manuals you gave me applicable to that of the IBM Debug Tool which is like another program, which you have to open before running your JCL? and which, you should include the correct IP Address of your pc on the JCL in order for it to properly run?

sorry i can't attach a screenshot, the url is blocked here at work

well, I can't tell you. I have never used IBM's debug tool. xpeditor, intertest, and a few in-house written debug methodologies that I have encountered at different sites. That's why I gave you a link to all the manuals. Someone else here may have experience with that utility.

Now, if you would like help debugging your program, without debug tool, there are lots of very skilled and experienced people that visit/moderate these forums.

But, you will have to provide us a little info. I assume all is COBOL; is this E-COBOL or OS390? When you execute the Run-UNIT (dynamically or statically bound? by the way) without Debug Tool what error are you getting?
Since there is DB2 involved are you executing via one of the IKJEFT0ns ? If your problem is DB2, are you displaying the complete SQLCA? We will help and walk you thru, but you have to give us a place to start. I personnally am not sure what your problem is, other than frustration, which I/we can appreciate.

please refer to the link above as to what my problem really is. i am using debug tool so as to monitor which part of my program produces the wrong output.

as for your questions.

i use OS390, without debug tool, i don't have an error, besides the wrong output i intended.
i don't exactly know IKJEFT0ns yet, so i guess i am not using it, i display the complete SQLCA
