Hi,

I have the below setup of PFkeys in ISPF.
Code:
 Key       Definition
 F1 . . .  HELP
 F2 . . .  SPLIT
 F3 . . .  EXIT
 F4 . . .  \m

As we can see the PF4 is mapped to \ followed by smaller case m.
But when I type PF4 from "ISPF Primary Option Menu" i get \M substituted instead of \m

Could you please let me know how we can supress the lowercase to uppercase conversion.

Thanks & Regards,

The ISPF primary option menu is ISR@PRIM. On my system, the ZCMD field has an attribute of:
Code:
 26 TYPE(NEF) CAPS(ON) PADC(USER)

Meaning that the command will be uppercased. You need to change the field definition to CAPS(OFF)

Hello Pedro,

Thanks for the idea, mine too says
Code:
 26 TYPE(NEF) CAPS(ON) PADC(USER)


I will try copying this member to my PDS and change it to CAPS OFF & assign it to ISPPLIB.

I owe u a aamburga :-)

Thanks & Regards,

From Wikipedia:
Quote:
Wimpy had other frequently used lines in the original comic strip. On some occasions, Wimpy tries to placate someone by saying "I'd like to invite you over to my house for a duck dinner." He then moves away quickly to a safe distance and yells, "You bring the ducks!"
