  Help with (unspecified) DEFINE failure? 
 The Question is:
 
We ordered a Alphaserver DS20 and software (OpenVMS V7.2-1 , FORTRAN , Decomni
 V3.1 , Decosap V3.1)  license for a steel project of KAZAKHSTAN in china last
 year. In order to communicate with SIEMENS S7-300, we wrote OpenVMS command
 files and Fortran lang
uage programs according to the introduction of OpenVMS ALPHA Online
 documentation library 2/2 disk.
The two command files are:
  REG.COM:
$REGISTER DIRECTORY NAME !0CN=AD_PLC!1 ATTRIBUTE
 !0OC=OSH1/NETADDRESS=IEEE%080006010A41/TSAP=OSAPPLCI!1
 $REGISTER DIRECTORY NAME !0CN=AD_ALPHA!1 ATTRIBUTE
 !0OC=OSH1/NETADDRESS=IEEE%AA0004000204/TSAP=OSAPCLTI!1
  DEF.COM:
$R SYS$SYSTEM:OMNI_ODF
$SET APPLICATION PROFILE OSHE
$DEFINE VMD PLC1 APPLICATION SIMPLE NAME AD_PLC
$DEFINE VMD ALPHA1 APPLICATION SIMPLE NAME AD_ALPHA
We debugged programs in a Alphaserver 2100 in china and ran very well. But when
 we went to REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN to run program in the Alphaserver DS20, the
 command file def.com can!/t run in the step
$ DEFINE VMD PLC1 APPLICATION SIMPLE NAME AD_PLC.
 I wish to know the reason quickly.Please reply to liw_1975@hotmail.com Thanks.
 
 
 
 
 The Answer is :
 
  As there is insufficient information on the configuration and on the
  failure, and as this is reportedly a time-critical problem -- though
  the OpenVMS Wizard is explictly and unfortunately unable to provide
  timely nor certain responses to questions -- you will want to contact
  the Compaq Customer Support Center (CSC) directly for assistance.
 
  The provided DCL DEFINE command syntax is clearly incorrect, please see
  the OpenVMS DCL Dictionary for information on the expected syntax of this
  DCL command.
