Please use the code tags (available in the full editor) when coding something that needs a fixed font. HTML strips extraneous spaces. I have done it for you and now the indicator lines up at the correct place.

I would suggest you look at the value at that point and compare its format with the one immediately preceding it. (You should have done that before posting)

In your example not every special character is followed by a space. Why have you coded that? Just remove all the 40s.

I ran the JCL after removing all the 40s, but still getting the same error message. Hence could you please look into this.

You have to post the fully sysout from the latest step with your fix. In the above, you also have no closing apostrophe on the hexadecimal literal.
