Hi
I have a rexx routine which invokes ISPSTRT by using SELECT service for starting new screens based on PARM options("SELECT PGM(ISPSTRT) PARM(3.4)"). I am trying to invoke this routine with our existing LOGON procedure itself. Hence I will get all the defined screens while login into Mainframe. But I got S0C4 abend. I verified that the REXX routine is in ISPEXEC environment(means Primary option menu,ZSCREEN = 1) at the time of execution. Same routine works fine when executing alone in TSO/ISPF. Do I need to allocate any datasets for this? Please help me to resolve this. |

| It is not clear how you execute your rexx program. Show us your code. |

We have a dataset lets say XXXX.REXX where we define all our rexx programs to invoke when login into Mainframe.
Lets say our Rexx program ABCD. I will place the following code "SELECT CMD(%ABCD)" in XXXX.REXX dataset, so our logon procedure will take this dataset and execute mentioned rexx programs.
In my case my rexx routine has "SELECT PGM(ISPSTRT)" statement. I have tried another routine with DSLIST program in above way, it works fine. |

In your first post, did you really mean that you tried "a totally different routine works fine when executing alone in TSO/ISPF"?
Read the description of the ISPSTRT program in the ISPF Dialog Developers Guide and Reference. The PARM() can be certain things, but probably not '3.4'. |

What I really meant is SELECT service with DSLIST program ISRDSLST works fine. In my second post I just have given extra information.
I am sure that we can have 3.4 in parm option. Generally parm option can have available screen options in your ISPF like SDSF for SPOOL
One more additional info "SELECT PGM(ISPSTSRT)" is equavlent to START commmand in ISPF. |

Sorry, but 3.4, syntactically (sp?), does not look anything like SDSF or SPOOL.
Report back after you have actually read the manual. |

| I tried this by changing ISR@PRIM to invoke a command on the 1st display only that does ISPSTRT for SDSF, 3.4 and DDLIST and other command table entries and panel options and it works fine, but it is rather confusing to use, especially if you have the "Always show split line" unchecked in the SETTINGS screen. I'd suggest making this an optional command such as a command table entry rather than having all your users get multiple screens by default. I also had to disable the logo display to make it work on entry to ISPF. |

Also, you can't just check zscreen=1 because you will relaunch all the screens with the sequence END;SPLIT on screen number 1. You need to insure that it is the first display of the entire session. Something like this:
| Code: |
)INIT
...
VGET (xxFRSTxx) SHARED
IF (&XXFRSTXX EQ &Z AND &ZSPLIT = 'NO' AND &ZCMD = &Z)
&xxFRSTxx = 1
VPUT (xxFRSTxx) SHARED
.RESP = ENTER
IF (&ZSPLIT = 'YES')
&xxFRSTxx = 2
VPUT (xxFRSTxx) SHARED |
| Code: |
)PROC
if (&xxFRSTxx EQ 1)
&ZCMD=xxINITxx
&xxFRSTxx = 2
VPUT (xxFRSTxx) SHARED
...
&ZSEL = TRANS (TRUNC (&ZCMD,'.')
...
xxINITxx,'CMD(%your command that starts the screens)'
...

Can you show us the command syntax for ISPSTRT that will use '3.4' as a parameter? I do not believe it is possible. |
