Hi,

Can anyone help me?

I'm trying to Turn Interactive Tracing on then Off in the middle of execution of a Rexx member.

I have researched and tried both of the following but the interactive trace continues.

Well, unless you actually tell us what the problem is - NO

As I said above:

the TRACE doesn't turn off or cease in code example 1 after the second
"TRACE ?R"
line of code, which I have read should happen if Trace is already in execution.

same with
"TRACE ?O"
in code example 2, Trace does not stop.

Have you tried TRACE O

had you bothered to read the documentation,
i believe TRACE OFF is the command that you are looking for,
when running in background (that means batch) mode.

if in foreground (interactive mode), you can simply enter TRACE OFF.

if you are in a loop, each time a TRACE command (without the OFF keyword) is encountered, trace will be on.

RTFM
