Once you get the coding correct, any R15 value not zero from DEVTYPE can be 
treated as "DD not found".  Simplest solution and solid as a rock to use.

I read DEVTYPE doc looking for rc meaning "not found" and did not see it.

The DEVTYPE macro is a much safer and simpler way to check for the presence of 
a DD. The old TIOT scan method may work and it may not work.
