I'm having difficulty understanding why you want to use the same program for E15 and E35. Can you explain more?


E15 and E35 exit had a lot similar processing with very few differences. That's why thought of writing single code with difference separated by identifying if E15 called it or E35. Writing different codes is the final resort.

I don't think it will work if you use the same program name for each exit. You could use the same source, different program name, I just don't get why this would be useful.


Yes, I suppose the only things that SORT passes to user exit are return code (0, 4 or 8) and record address. So there isn't any trace as to which exit called it, or are you saying this because same program would be re- loaded in the memory?
