Have you tried this? x=msg('off') "CALL 'LMG.TEST.LOAD(NDVREMER)' '"ndvparm"'" x=msg(x) This will turn messages off for this call. Or you could use outtrap if you need to process the message. x=OUTTRAP("mymsg.") "CALL 'LMG.TEST.LOAD(NDVREMER)' '"ndvparm"'" x=outtrap(off) A positive...

I found the problem. It was a region size issue. I increased my region and it worked like a champ. I would like to thank everyone who posted.

OK, I tried something a little different. I'm building my edit macro on the fly and then calling it. I am storing my macro in the same library as my EXEC (SYSSU.REXX.EXEC). It is coded as follows: /* REXX */ Say "<<<<<<CMNEDIT REXX EXEC WAS...

Also, I'm following this article from TSO/Times to the tee. http://www.tsotimes.com/articles/archive/summerfall98/ispf.html

It works like a champ in the foregroup. When I run a trace, I get an RC(4). 11 *-* ADDRESS ISPEXEC "EDIT DATASET('"FILENAME"') MACRO("MACRO1")" >>> "EDIT DATASET('TEST.PDF') MACRO(##CMDS)" +++ RC(4) +++ 12 *-*...

I don't think that is the problem. I have quotes around the dataset name and feeding a variable. (i.e. '"FILENAME"') I renamed my dataset from TEST.PDF to S743SS.TEST.PDF and reran my job. I got a return code of 990 with the following errror. * Data set not cataloged -/-'TEST.PDF' was...

I'm trying to run an edit macro from batch. Below is the JCL, edit macro, and REXX. It works online but not in batch. It appears the edit macro is not being called. What am I doing wrong? Also, I'm attaching the output of my JCL. *******************************************************...

Are you trying to do this in MVS?

Have you looked at XMITIP? http://www.lbdsoftware.com/xmitip.html

That was it rexxhead. I knew it was something simple. Thanks for everyones help.

I have a REXX using panels to gather information from the user to build JCL for them. I'm running into a problem. After the user enters their information, they have to press the enter key twice to have it to go on. I've tried to use the following: "ISPEXEC CONTROL DISPLAY LOCK" before...

Its been awhile since I've worked in REXX. I'm trying to remeber how to add a message line to a dataset when I'm in edit mode. For example ==MSG> MESSAGE GOES HERE ==MSG> MESSAGE CONTINUES ETC ETC 00001 00002 00003 Anyones help would be appreciated.

I'm thinking its vendor supplied program. I can't find it in my concat libraries. It is basically checking dataset enques.

I am having issues with outtrap. I am using the following code to trap dsnenq command. Trapping is not working because it lists the DSNENQ command output and if you list var.0 command it is zero. Any ideas? do i=1 to info.0 dsn=strip(substr(info.i,1,46),t) x =...

Thks rxusr it worked great.
