Hi,
I am experiencing an unusual problem with the start command.
Issue:
Suppose I am on the main screen and If I issue "START 3.4" command on ISPF command line.
| Code: |
Menu Utilities Compilers Options Status Help
ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I get this screen
| Code: |
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Menu RefList RefMode Utilities Help
ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Data Set List Utility
Option ===>

V Display VTOC information PV Print VTOC information
Enter one or both of the parameters below:
Dsname Level . . .
Volume serial . .
Data set list options
Initial View Enter "/" to select option
1 1. Volume / Confirm Data Set Delete
2. Space / Confirm Member Delete
3. Attrib / Include Additional Qualifiers
4. Total / Display Catalog Name

Prefix Dsname Level
When the data set list is displayed, enter either:
"/" on the data set list command field for the command prompt pop-up,
an ISPF line command, the name of a TSO command, CLIST, or REXX exec, or
"=" to execute the previous command.
F1=Help F2=Split F3=Exit F7=Backward F8=Forward F9=Swap
F10=Actions F12=Cancel
|
Now If I press PF9 to go back to previous screen, I see the "Start 3.4" command is still retained there, and I get an error "Invalid Option"

Mine are
Release . : ISPF 6.1
OS/390 release . . . . : Z/OS 01.12.00
but I think, this has to be some ISPF setting which I am missing. |

| Does it do this every time you issue the START command? With any other commands? |

Can you also let us know the command assigned to your PF9 key? |

Given that PF9 appears to be doing exactly what it says on the label, swapping screen, I'm not sure that your question is going to garner any useful information.

I had exactly the same problem at a previous site.
I think I used SPLIT NEW to create the new screen but could not get it to accept the 3.4 part.
So basically I joined the two commands with the delimiter and entered SPLIT NEW ; 3.4 ;;
You will also need to position the cursor to where you want the split to occur as otherwise it will default to the command line of the current screen. |

Hi,
I am not sure what is the problem. At my previous site this problem was not there.
My PF9 key is set to SWAP.
Expat,
I tried SPLIT NEW command, but I am more comfortable with START command. |
