Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

  tab is open. The problem is caused by an error in the code of
  IGZIZNB.
  

Local fix

• Do remote debugging with Variable tab closed.

  The COBOL support routines do not correctly calculate the
  length of the data items being returned for display in the
  variables pane. This caused an overlay of a storage header,
  resulting in  MSGCEE0802C, MSGCEE3703I and MSGCEE3704I being
  issued.
  

Problem conclusion

• The COBOL support routines will be modified to correctly
  determine the length of returned data items.
