Replace string in DATASET

Can anyone suggest a better way to replace string in a DATASET?

I'm taking the inputs from the panel and I need to replace the input values in the DATASET.

I'm able to replace a string in DATASET by using a MACRO, but how can I replace the values from the PANEL in the MACRO?

thanks,
ramprasad.

Invoking Edit Macro programmatically is done using the EDIT service. Since you can't use ISPF service from within panel (even not within *REXX), you will have to take care of that using REXX code.

However, you can make that transparent to the panel viewer if you use the CONTROL DISPLAY LOCK service.
