Subject:      Re: Creating dynamic Mainframe dataset using libname

Yes, you'r mixing up something. Do not use a filename to allocate a SAS
library! Use a LIBNAME to do so. Something like:

1      libname test "int5112.sas.xxx" disp=new space=(CYL,(10,2));
NOTE: Libref TEST was successfully assigned as follows:
      Engine:        V8
      Physical Name: INT5112.SAS.XXX

should assign a new library. Depending on your system it might be necessary
to add some other parameters. But try to keep it simple like that first,
then ask your systemers what you have to add to get it to work. Refer to the
SAS online help or to the SAS Companion for zOS (or MVS) for examples how to
tell your libname statement, how to do.
