I'm using a panel to list a set of menu items:
)INIT
.HELP = SMTh0
.cursor = ZCMD
&PFKEY3 = &ZPF03
&ZPF03 = END
VPUT ( ZPF03 ) PROFILE
)PROC
&ZPF03 = &PFKEY3
VER (&zcmd,nb,list,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,'x'
&ZSEL = TRANS (TRUNC (&ZCMD,'.')
1,'cmd(%TS7740B)'
2,'cmd(TS7740C)'
3,'cmd(TS7740CS)'
4,'cmd(%TS7740D)'
5,'cmd(%TS7740h)'
6,'cmd(%TS7740J)'
but it drops through this and out of the calling rexx.
After running this in 7.1 - with the panel - the cmds got executed, so am assuming I haven't included something in the calling rexx
Any hints welcome
Thanks, |

| Does the calling program use "ISPEXEC SELECT PANEL(panname)"? |

| If the selection from the panel is coming from ZCMD and you are doing your VER on &ZCMD, wouldn't you want to do a VPUT (ZCMD) PROFILE rather than VPUT (ZPF03) PROFILE. |

I do not like panels that change my PF key settings. Those can be set by the user... and many people do.
And I especially do not like that you change it and save to the profile. That will likely affect other applications as well. |

I altered this, but it had no effect
Are there any possible commands I should be using in the calling rexx |

| If anyone has any examples of a menu within a panel being called from a REXX with the rexx code, that might be good to see how the experts do it. |

I think all you need in your rexx is the select statement, and for debugging, add a trace statement:
| Code: |
trace('r')
Address ISPEXEC
"SELECT PANEL(yourpanl)"
|
Add a trace to TS7740B to make sure it is not being called and ending without showing anything.
You did not post your entire panel definition. Please show your )PROC section through to the end.
Your VER statement is missing right parenthesis.
Your TRANS statement is missing right parenthesis. |

that's funny. The first response to your post recommended SELECT service and you responded that you were using it already on Thu Oct 23, 2008 1:49 pm.
Please read the advice you are reading carefully. |
