All of the test results meet my expectations. Obviously, I may have
missed
a necessary test.

Here are a few more I think you should try:

(SYSTYPE=D,,,,ATMSYS=TAT2)
(SYSTYPE= D,ATMSYS=TAT2)
(SYSTYPE = D, ATMSYS = TAT2)
(SYSTYPE = D ATMSYS = TAT2)
(SYSTYPE=D,JUNK, ATMSYS=TAT2)
(SYSTYPE=D, JUNK ATMSYS=TAT2)
(SYSTYPE=D JUNK ATMSYS=TAT2)
(SYSTYPE=D JUNK,ATMSYS=TAT2)

--------------------------
(SYSTYPE=D,,,,ATMSYS=TAT2)
IGNORING PARM-LEN ZERO
IGNORING PARM-LEN ZERO
IGNORING PARM-LEN ZERO
SYSTYPE = D
ATMSYS = TAT2

Looks good.

--------------------------
(SYSTYPE= D,ATMSYS=TAT2)
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
SYSTYPE =
ATMSYS = TAT2

Looks like an 'oopsie' to me...

--------------------------
(SYSTYPE = D, ATMSYS = TAT2)
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
IGNORING PARM-LEN ZERO
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
SYSTYPE NOT SET
ATMSYS NOT SET

I'd call that another one.

--------------------------
(SYSTYPE = D ATMSYS = TAT2)
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
SYSTYPE NOT SET
ATMSYS NOT SET

And that.

--------------------------
(SYSTYPE=D,JUNK, ATMSYS=TAT2
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
IGNORING PARM-LEN ZERO
SYSTYPE = D
ATMSYS = TAT2
--------------------------
(SYSTYPE=D, JUNK ATMSYS=TAT2
IGNORING PARM-LEN ZERO
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
SYSTYPE = D
ATMSYS = TAT2
--------------------------
(SYSTYPE=D JUNK ATMSYS=TAT2)
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
SYSTYPE = D
ATMSYS = TAT2
--------------------------
(SYSTYPE=D JUNK,ATMSYS=TAT2)
IGNORING INVALID KW/VAL PAIR
SYSTYPE = D
ATMSYS = TAT2

All look good to me. Of course I'm just ignoring the ones that have spaces
before and/or after the equals sign, but I'm OK with that.

IMO, you shouldn't be, because that's a *very* likely anomaly in your input.

Thanks for the suggestions!
