ISPS102 Invalid Service Name 1

[Mottus]

Hi I'm new to REXX.

I have a piece of REXX which reads an MVS PDS using EXECIO. This works happily - however, I've added a LIBDEF to temporarily allocate a new ISPPLIB dataset. Now I get an ISPS102 Invalid Service Name against the EXECIO.

Any ideas anyone?

??? maybe you have switched to a different environment e.g.

address ispexec;
'LIBDEF blah blah';
..
..
'EXECIO * DISKR.....';

maybe you should change back to

address TSO;

before issuing the EXECIO? Or just

address ispexec 'LIBDEF blah blah';

all on one line so it only switches for the duration of the libdef?

Many thanks. the ADDRESS TSO worked like a charm.

Cheers
