What is QueryENQ parameter in ISPEXEC

Y=Outtrap(Userc.)
"ISPEXEC QUERYENQ QNAME(SYSDSN) RNAME(ttoi.rawatr.exec)"
Y=Outtrap("OFF")

I know this sounds Silly, but I couldnt understand the parameters for QUERYENQ. My requirement is to know if the file is opened in edit mode and by whom.

I tried searching for some good articles on QUERYENQ, but only found its syntax.
If some body can, please do explain me the use of QNAME and RNAME here.

QUERYENQ is an ISPF service, so you can't use OUTTRAP with it.

As the fine manual says, QUERYENQ creates an ISPF table with info regarding enqueues. It is your responsibility to loop through the rows in this table and process the information.

Hi Ofer,

Thanks a lot for the Link. they were really helpful.

I want to know who all are in the PDS TTOI.userid.EXEC in Edit mode. So I wrote the following:-

"ISPEXEC QUERYENQ QNAME(SPFEDIT) RNAME(var1)
Save(Var4)"

The entry in the PDS var4 is:-
RAWATR QBOS SHARE OWN SYSTEMS GLOBAL SYSDSN
TTOI.RAWATR.EXEC

However, One more user is inside the PDS(not in any member) in edit mode, and this is not getting reflected in the Results.

Also when I have specified the QNAME as SPFEDIT, why is it getting reflected as SYSDSN?

Can somebody help me out here.

Can somebody let me know how to use XSYS in QUERYENQ, using it as XSYS=YES gives me an error.

Also how do i define a member name in RNAME?
