if You tell what You are trying to achieve, rather than asking if a feature is there
You might get better answers
p.s. product features and capabilities are better described in the manuals |

I want to write validation script with in ISPF panel. I have 10 file fields in panel to be checked for catloged or not. For one file i have done this with in *REXX.....*ENDREXX statements. I can repeat the logic for all 10 files. But the script is getting bigger and it would be difficult for me to maintain it.
Is there any approach which i can follow to avoid repeating same logic in ISPF? |

I would use PANEXIT, transferring the dataset name as a parameter and getting back a return code.

use INTERPRET to generate the right commands in a loop. can be done if your field names are similar e.g. yadda1,yadda2,..... |
