SAY 'STARTING TO RUN A JOB'
"ISPEXEC LIBDEF ISPPLIB DATASET ID('TAXI@.OFFSHORE.JCL.MAY05'"
"ISPEXEC DISPLAY PANEL (PANEL1)"
SAY 'JOB RUN'
RETURN

and in my panel definition , i have coded

) ATTR DEFAULT(%+)
% TYPE(TEXT) INTENS(HIGH)
+ TYPE(TEXT) INTENS(LOW)
) BODY
+ A Sample panel - REXX Training
+ -------------------------------------
+
+ Enter your name please ==>
+
+ Name cannot exceed more than 15 chars +
+
+ Press ENTER to continue,PF3 to exit +
+
+
+
)end

and this is the output i am getting....

) ATTR DEFAULT( )

First, are you missing a closing parenthese here:

there goes :

)ATTR (yours has a space)
)body (yours has a space

and the )ATTR field needs three default attribute characters (not 2 as specified in your example)

hi all ,
i tried giving the )attr and )body without giving a space at the front ...

but following is the error message

ISPP111

Panel 'PANEL1' error
Illegal characters or statement type found in )ATTR section.

Panel line where error was detected:
)ATTR

Why don't you start over and copy in a new panel model.

Open a new member (PANEL1A maybe) in your ISPPLIB dataset. Make sure that you have NUMS OFF in your PROFILE.

Enter MODEL.

Select Option 6 PANELS - Panel formats and statements.

Scroll down to:
Panel Formats:
F0 PANFORM

and enter F0.

Use the model for F1 ENTRY - Data entry
by entering F1.

SAVE the panel definition. Now, you can use this as a template for your panel.

I'm at a loss as to how to proceed.

The ISPPLIB (panel) PDS should be allocated as FB, LRECL=80, DSORG=PO. If it isn't, then that could be the problem. From what you have described, it's almost as if your panel definition is somehow corrupted. MODEL is a standard ISPF EDIT command, so, if it is not working, you need to get in touch with your systems programmers.
