  *                 z/OS who validate a Work Statement List      *

  ****************************************************************
  If the number of columns in a CREATE VIEW statement in the form
  'CREATE VIEW view_name (column-name,...) AS SELECT * FROM
  table-name', does not match the number of columns in the table,
  Validate WSL ends with return code 0.
  

Problem conclusion

• Problem has been resolved.  A new message ADB3024E 'The number
  of columns specified for the view is not the same as the number
  of columns in the corresponding table.' was added to indicate
  the different column numbers between the view and the table.
  Validate WSL will fail with a RC=8 and the customer needs to
  check whether the columns specified for the view is the same
  as the number of columns in the corresponding table.
  

Temporary fix
