ERRORS DURING IBM FORMAT
A format error can occur when using AST SuperSpool with IBM
FORMAT or DISKCOPY.
IBM FORMAT command must always reside in a 64K block of
contiguous memory, otherwise a format error can occur. The
SuperSpool's /U command could force the FORMAT command outside
the 64K boundary.
If the format error occurs, vary the /U command by +/- 3K.
This should clear the problem.
