Hi

I am trying to do a string search using ISPF Option 3.14.

I enter the word in the field search string and specify the dataset name and hit enter. At the next screen i am getting all the member names in that PDS and i see the message 'Enter END command to process selections or CANCEL to leave the member list. ' just below the command line can anyone help me out what do i need to do.

I tried hitting Enter again and typed END command line still did not get the selections.

I know for a fact that the word i am searching is in only one Member

Then select that member. Or select only the members that you want to consider. Or select all of the members.

Or use PF1 and read the tutorial for beginners on how to use 3.14.

the previous screen where you enter the DSN, also has a field for member.
If memory serves me,
to the right of this member field,
are instructions: enter member name, * for all, or blank to display member list.

Type "S *" on the command line and press ENTER to select all members. Press the PF3 key (or whatever key you have mapped to trhe END command) to process your selections.

Thanks for the updates.

i just found an alternate way using the command 'G F string' and it gives me the result from ISPF 3.4.
