    ****************************************************************
     UK83463 traces a section DSNDQPAC with an incorrect length
     in the IFCID239.  As a result, calculation of all offsets to
     long name values at the end of the QPAC section is incorrect.
     This leads to the incorrect values in the following fields:
    
     QPACLOCN_Off, QPACCOLN_Off, QPACPKID_Off, QPACASCH_Off,
     QPACAANM_Off.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Correctly trace the DSNDQPAC section.
