Hi,

I would like to know how the option 'I' of Library Utility in File-Aid helps us?

Code:

If you need to know, for example, if an S0C4 abend could have been caused by addressing mode problems, or whether the load module is even executable (they can be flagged as non-executable after all), and so forth. The fields on this screen do have use -- limited in many cases, but still useful in the right circumstances.

Hi, Thanks for the info.

Would looking into the File-Aid online programming guide helps us in anyway to understand this in detail?

Thanks.

Hello,

You could look there and you might also look in the link editor material.

Once you become more familiar with these values, how would you use them?
