Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All QMF for TSO and CICS V81 QBE users.      *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Message DSQ20847, "SAVE QBE QUERY needs *
  *                      a valid name", is issued if users try   *
  *                      to save a QBE query via the SAVE        *
  *                      Command Prompt panel, and the NAME      *
  *                      portion of LOC.NAME is greater than 9   *
  *                      characters.                             *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  QMF SAVE logic assigned to a variable a value that is double
  the length of the NAME value supplied by users in the
  SAVE Command Prompt panel.  It compared the value of that
  variable to 18, which is the maximum NAME length allowed in
  QBE, since long name support is not available in QBE.
  Therefore, a 9 byte name, whose length was doubled to 18 bytes,
  was the longest name allowed for QBE SAVE QUERY processing.
  

Problem conclusion

• QBE SAVE logic has been amended to compare the correct varaible
  that contains the actual NAME length with 18.
