Hi List,
I want to lookup for a hexadecimal Timestamp value in a LOAD MODULE.
Using 3.4 option in ISPF, I was able to find the value.
But , when used rexx ISPEXEC VIEW DATASET(dsn) MACRO(FIND) command it is not working.
Also , i tried to read the file and copy to a variable and use POS to find the string, but it returns 0 - not found.
Can anyone help me on this.
Regards,

NO, your implementation of the command is faulty.
what was the rc after issuing the ISPEXEC VIEW DATASET(dsn) statement in your rexx script.
what search string did you provide the "FIND" imacro?

what code did you use here? How did you code your "hexadecimal" timestamp?
Using 3.4 option only lists datasets.
how did you access the ds? browse, view, edit???
how did you search the loadmodule for your search string?
and what value did you use for the search string? |

Hi,
Actually FIND should be FIND1 which is a macro. It was a typo.
FIND1 contains
/* REXX */
"ISREDIT MACRO PROCESS"
"ISREDIT FIND X'17A0DD620AEAC685' "
IF RC=4 THEN "ISREDIT END"
EXIT
X'17A0DD620AEAC685' is the hexa decimal value I want to find in the load.
Using 3.4 I used to give View. But automatically Browse gets substituted.
Then I use command F X'17A0DD620AEAC685' to find the string.

| I think the TS wants to invoke VIEW with a load module. |

Hi,
I want to check in the load module whether this value
X'17A0DD620AEAC685' is found. If found , I have to set a flag and process someother operation.
But I am not able to conclude using rexx, if the hexa string is found or not. Since the load modules are defined with format U and Record Length 0 , I think I am not able to use MACROs in the load module dsn.
Pls let me know if any other way to look up for the hexa string in the dataset
Thanks,

ISPF Options 3.12, 3.13???
This (SUPERC) can be run foreground or background. |

There is, but it involves XMIT, changing the contents of textunit 0049 in the INMR02 control record, and doing a RECEIVE of the modified file, which you can now open in edit.
It might be possible automate most of this, but you have to be pretty clever to do so, as RECEIVE doesn't allow you to specify the receiving dataset... |

| Use the AMBLIST utility to format the load module then search the listing produced by the utility. |
