COMMENTS:
The FIELD parameter on the PNAMC macro specifies the label of
the desired storage location. This field must be defined with a
length of 4 bytes. The customer would like flexibility in
explicitly defining the length. For example: FIELD=EBW000(4).
 

SOLUTION:
The FIELD parameter, of the PNAMC macro, has been changed to
support the following definitions:
Explicit parameters are now allowed. For example
FIELD=EBW000(4) or CM1PAC(4,R2).
Implicit length must still be at least 4 bytes in length but
can now be greater than 4 bytes. Coding of FIELD=EBW000 will
still generate an assembly error because EBW000 has an implicit
length of 1. Coding of FIELD=CE1WKA will now be accepted even
though its implicit length is greater than 4. Only the first 4
bytes will be used.
