Hi.. My primary objective is to extract the Processor group and Signout ID for the modules from Endevor version controller. In Endevor, we have option to list all the module details. I need to extract all the details from the list screen to a dataset. When I use PRINT;LIST KEEP command, it just scraps the data from the screen which Iam viewing. But I need to scrap the entire data (the full 2000 lines). Please help me on this.

Hello,

Suggest you talk with your Endevor admins and put together a batch job to do what you want.

Screen scraping,
like many other terms that are miss-used/applied on this board,
is usually an emulator macro,
or a pc program (ibm's os/2 had HALIPI)
that scraps the screen
and then emulates a user hitting enter to go to the next page.

so either do what d.sch. has suggested,
or look to your pc.

Thanks a Lot for your quick reply.

I got a solution for this. In Endevor we have built in option User Menu-->Reports-->Master-->Element catalog. This option would create the JCL to get the details of elements (which executes endevor program NDVRC1). The details are directed to SYSOUT. We need to just direct it to a dataset by editing the JCL. Thats it. It worked fine.
