Could anyone tell me if we can read a spcific record from a ps file using rexx.
eg. if i want to compare the first line of filea and 5th line in fileb...
also, if I pass a file name as argument to another rexx program , can I read the contents of the file in the new rexx program...
please note that i want this to be in rexx only |

EXECIO supports a read of a specific record (or records).

Yes. You can use dynamic allocation (search for BPXWDYN) as needed. |
