An early shipment of the new NSCDDM, SASADBAC and SASIOADB modules for  
the SAS/ACCESS Interface to ADABAS is located at the web address        
www.sas.com/techsup/download/mvs/ADBV6.xmt.  This file contains a MVS   
data set in unloaded format created by the TRANSMIT facility of TSO.   

The modules in the file corrects several problems in the SAS/ACCESS    
Interface to ADABAS with ADABAS Version 6.  The following is a listing  
of these problems:                                                      
                                                                        
  1) L1 calls with garbage characters in the options fields produce     
     error messages in ADABAS Version 6.  This problem will be fixed    
     in the maintenance release following TSLEVEL 465.                  
                                                                        
  2) S1 calls with garbage characters in the quantity field generate    
     an ADABAS response code 7 on S1 calls.  This problem will be fixed 
     in the maintenance release following TSLEVEL 465.                  
                                                                        
  3) It is possible to receive a NAT2233 response code when using       
     NATURAL SECURITY 2.2 and ADABAS V6.  The problem occurs in the     
     NSCDDM module which provides NATURAL SECURITY support in the       
     SAS/ACCESS Interface to ADABAS.  The problem will be corrected in  
     a future maintenance release.                                                                                   

The unloaded version of the modules on the web (ADBV6.xmt) is in        
sequential format and can be transported using any binary sequential    
access method to your mainframe.  The MVS DCB characteristics of this
file are SPACE=(BLOCK,(104,144)), DSORG=PS, RECFM=FB, LRECL=80 and           
BLKSIZE=3120.  Download the ADBV6.xmt file to a MVS data set on disk    
with the same attributes as the unloaded version of the file.  The TSO  
RECEIVE and RESTORE commands are used to rebuild the load modules.  You 
must pre-allocate a PDS load library with RECFM=U to accept the rebuilt 
load modules.  After the load library is allocated, issue the following 
TSO commands:                                                           
                                                                        
  receive indataset(unloaded version of the data set)                   
                                                                        
and respond with the follwing at the prompt you receive:                
                                                                        
  restore dataset(target load library)                                  

Make the following changes to the cataloged procedure:                
                                                                      
   //STEPLIB   DD DISP=SHR,DSN=&LOAD                                  
   //          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.target.load.library            
   //          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.sas.prod.loadlib                  
   //          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.ADABAS.loadlib                    
                                                                      
Make the following changes to the SAS CLIST:                          
                                                                      
   sasload ('''your.target.load.library''  +                       
             ''your.sas.prod.loadlib''    +                           
             ''your.ADABAS.loadlib''')    +     
                                                                      
The module NSCDDM contained in this library is the NATURAL Security 
Interface Module supplied by Software AG to correct a NAT2233 response
code in the SAS/ACCESS Interface to ADABAS.  If you do not have the   
NATURAL Security Software, or do not want to use it, delete or rename 
the load module NSCDDM in your target library.                 

The fixes listed above are not currently available in a maintenance     
release.  If you plan on installing Release 6.09 TS460, please make     
certain to concatenate the modules from the web in front of the TS460
maintenance modules.  This will ensure that you pick up the corrections
for these problems.
