: : : Hi, : : : I wanted to know how IOFWTR can be used in Rexx to get the job information. For a given job name I wanted to get file name assigned to a particular DD in this job step. : : : Could I get some sample REXX code? : : : and also some tutorails on IOFWTR or ways in which I can read IOF spool. : : I am not sure I understand your question. : : IOFWTR is an IOF utility written in CLIST that selects output based on a variety of selection criteria, and writes it to an output data set. IOFWTR is documented in the CLIST PROC statement at the front of the CLIST. : : I think you are asking how you can user IOF to fetch Job information to a Rexx exec. I suggest you start by reading the November 1998 IOF Newsletter, "IOF Rexx/Clist Tutorial" at: : : : : http://www.triangle-systems.com/nl9811.shtml : : This newsletter gives several examples of fetching information into a Rexx exec using the TSICOPY command. Then perhaps you can be more specific about exactly what information you want to fetch, and how you want to use this information : Hi Jim, : Thanks for the useful link. I am also trying to use the TSICOPY commands on a smaller version before I really implement it. : here is the test code I am trying but isnt running: : /*rexx*/ : address IOF : 'TSICOPY NAME(ROWS) TO(REXX) SECTION(PANEL)' : say ROWS : 'JUMP X' : This gives me error: : : 3 *-* 'TSICOPY NAME(ROWS) TO(REXX) SECTION(PANEL)' : +++ RC(-3) +++ : ROWS : would like to get more help on this and if some tutorail can be given where more detailed explanation for accessing IOF is given. : Thanks for repling and looking forwards for more. : Regards, : Anuj
