80A abends are usually associated with insufficient REGION size. Try increasing your REGION size for the job.

Is it a very big program.
I think Virtual storage exceeds the limit which has been allocated for you.

unless I misunderstood, if s/he can cut/paste s/he obviously can open the program in VIEW/EDIT mode..& if so shy don't the error comes in at the first place, when opened for view/edit ?

I am not 100% sure whether I got the same error or not.But,try to use
'COMPRESS' in the command prompt when you are in EDIT mode in the member.It might solve your problem.

Thanks
Krishy

ISPF compression would make the source unreadable by the compiler!

My mistake. I was thinking of the ISPF profile command PACK ON which compresses the source data to fewer bytes when saved.

I'm not sure what the COMPRESS command is that krishy mentioned. Maybe a foreground compress of the source PDS?

hai ,

When I did changes I got this abend. So I had commented paras also in program. I removed that. I reduced the size of the program. The program itself over. No changes more. Thank You

Hi,

Good to hear that problem is resolved now..but I'm not convinced yet with this argument,

perhaps little more investigation from my side.

In a very unique case, I might believe that editing a very large source deck used so much of the user's REGION that when the time came to do the STOW back into the PDS there was not enough storage for new control blocks or workareas.

Normally, you see a problem when you first attempt to edit the file and get a storage shortage failure right away.
