Issue/Introduction

What do you do if you receive the message, " B070 VALUE NOT WITHIN ACCEPTABLE RANGE - LINESIZE", when using  Endevor to manage  Easytrieve programs?

 

Resolution

If you check the Easytrieve Plus Options Table, you will probably find that LINESIZE is set to the expected value of 132. Also, if you check the Easytrieve program you will probably find that the LINESIZE is either not coded and thereby using the Options Table default of 132, or that LINESIZE is coded with an acceptable number from 80 to 132.

If there does not seem to be a problem with the Easytrieve Plus LINESIZE, try running the program outside of Endevor to see if the program runs without error. If the program returns the expected output, then the problem is due to Endevor's SYSPRINT record (which is overriding the LINESIZE). Talk to your Endevor administrator so that he or she may correct the SYSPRINT record.
