The binder validates the AMODE and RMODE combination according to the following table:
| RMODE=24 | RMODE=ANY | |
|---|---|---|
| AMODE=24 | valid | invalid |
| AMODE=31 | valid | valid |
| AMODE=ANY | valid | invalid |
| AMODE=64 | valid | valid |
A combination of AMODE=ANY and RMODE=ANY is changed to AMODE=31 and RMODE=ANY unless AMODE=ANY has been directly specified on a control statement or batch parameter. In this case, an error message is issued.
If AMODE is equal to 24 or ANY and RMODE=ANY has been directly specified as a PARM field option or on a control statement, an error message is issued and processing continues.
