Control statements that contain numbered lines
You sometimes can receive unexpected results when data set names are continued and the control statements have line numbers in columns 73 - 80 because ACIF reads all 80 columns of the control statements for processing purposes.
This topic contains information relevant to running ACIF on z/OS® systems.
ACIF attempts to use the line number as a data set name and issues messages APK451S and APK417I with a numeric value. To resolve this problem, remove any line numbers from the control statements and rerun the job or use a comment indicator (/*) before each line number.
