Different abend this time: S0C4. Is that null pointer stuff like other languages?

Protection exception. Program touched storage it should not. Common beginner causes: using a file after failed OPEN, bad addressability / linkage, subscript out of range, calling something with wrong USING.

Look at the PSW / offset, match to the compile listing, see which statement died.
