TSO REXX / ISPF Panels

[vhagopian]

When displaying an ISPF panel from REXX, i would like to set the cursor position on the panel. I would like the cursor to be sitting on the correct field after setting an error message for that field. Any info would be great.

Thanks

REXX is incidental here -- this is entirely the function of ISPF Services:

address ISPEXEC 
"DISPLAY PANEL("pnlname") CURSOR("csrfield")"

You can also set

.cursor = zork

as part of an IF-statement in the panel definition itself or you can use a VER-statement with the MSG subparameter.
