Hmmmm, interesting.

It doesn't work like that for me:

Command me: build testfile;rec=-80,,f,ascii;disc=1
Command me: listfile testfile,2
ACCOUNT=  AIHDEVEL    GROUP=  SHUGARTP
FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX
TESTFILE           80B  FA           0          1   3        0  0  *

Command me: comment purge testfile
Command me: do list
Command me: listfile testfile,2
ACCOUNT=  AIHDEVEL    GROUP=  SHUGARTP
FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX
TESTFILE           80B  FA           0          1   3        0  0  *

Command me: # purge testfile
Command me: do list
Command me: listfile testfile,2
ACCOUNT=  AIHDEVEL    GROUP=  SHUGARTP
FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX
TESTFILE           80B  FA           0          1   3        0  0  *

Command me: #purge testfile
Command me: do list
Command me: listfile testfile,2
ACCOUNT=  AIHDEVEL    GROUP=  SHUGARTP
FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX
TESTFILE           80B  FA           0          1   3        0  0  *

Dumb question, but are you truly at the colon prompt? Perhaps something is intercepting your commands and stripping off the "#"? Wish I could help. That's just bizzare.

We have noticed that in a session directly at the prompt, any command prefixed
with COMMENT is treated as, well, a comment and not executed. On the other hand, a command prefixed by '#' is executed.

There is no difference between COMMENT and '#' in a command file or in a job
stream.

Is this normal?
