Hi all,
I am creating a rexx macro now and for that i am using isredit find command to find the particular string in a jcl and getting the dataset by using the string....but now what happened is the string is present in more than one more place so each time when the string is found it should get the dataset and move it to the stem variable...i found the string once and now the string is present in line number 12 and i have to move my cursor position to line number 12 from the present cursor position which is 6....how can i move the cursor position after each find statement....
Title de-emphasised |

unfortunately nobody does URGENT around here
if You have time constraints a forum is not the best place to ask for help
and ... do not use CAPS in the title of the topic, it' s like shouting |

How do you do it when you are normally editing a dataset. Have you referred to the macro manual? |

Are you saying that the cursor does not move after the second FIND?
Show us your macro. |

First of all Sorry for giving the subject in caps...i have been trying to find out the solution for 2 days regarding but dint get a solution....
| Code: |
/*REXX*/
"ISREDIT MACRO"
TRACE (?R)
TEMP="NEW,CATLG,DELETE"
I=1
"ISREDIT SEEK ALL '"TEMP"'"
"ISREDIT (COUNT) = SEEK_COUNTS"
SAY COUNT
DO WHILE COUNT > 0
IF RC=0 THEN DO
"ISREDIT (VAL) = LINENUM .ZCSR"
VAL1=VAL-1
"ISREDIT CURSOR = "VAL1" 1"
"ISREDIT (LINE) = LINE .ZCSR"
INPUT.I = STRIP(LINE)
PARSE VALUE "'"INPUT.I"'" WITH PREC ','
OUT=POS('=',PREC)
RES=SUBSTR(PREC,OUT+1)
OUTPUT.I=RES
"ISREDIT FIND NEXT '"TEMP"'"
COUNT=COUNT-1
END
"ISREDIT END" |
here is my macro.....after the FIND NEXT command.....when the loop again starts the cursor position is in the same place it dint move to next position after the string is again present......
Code'd |

COUNT is controlling your loop. How do you feel there is a connection between COUNT (a Varible) and FIND?
To put it another way, when you FIND what happens to COUNT? Nothing.
It is good to use the trace and post it.
Work on your indentation. |

| I have COUNT here as loop since it will tell the number of times the string is present and so the process of finding the string and performing operation on that line will happen according to the number of the times the string is present....Now how can i move the cursor to the next line where the string is again present what code should i write for that after the NEXT FIND syntax line.... |

Hi... I guess you are trying to get list of Datasets that are getting created in the JOB.
| Code: |
"ISREDIT (VAL) = LINENUM .ZCSR"
VAL1=VAL-1
"ISREDIT CURSOR = "VAL1" 1" |
Because of the above statement, Cursor move to Previous line and when you issue "FIND NEXT", it will go the same line again and again. If you haven't specified loop based on count, it would've been a infinite  .
When you use "FIND" command in your EXEC, its better to avoid change the place of cursor.
if you want to get the previous line data, you can easily get by LINENUM.
So, remove
| Code: |
"ISREDIT CURSOR = "VAL1" 1"
"ISREDIT (LINE) = LINE .ZCSR" |
and code
| Code: |
| "ISREDIT (LINE) = LINE " VAL1 |
Hope this helps  |

You should realize that just whining about getting an error is only a waste of time for everybody
unless You post more useful info ...
the EXACT code snippet
the EXACT error You received
and a trace of the execution of the relevant statements
Your chances of getting help are pretty slim |

| FIND does not support a syntax of finding two different strings. You have to find each of string1 then start over at the top and find each of string2. |

Hi,
Yes i found that and used two different call statement to call each time like when it finds temp1 it calls one program and when it finds temp2 it calls the other program.
But now i want to find whether the dataset which i am finding is a GDG or a ps file...if it is GDG then i have to iterate through the loop.
is there any syntax to find the character in a line....please help with that....
My idea is to find whether the dataset is GDG or ps is if that dataset contains "(" or ")" then i can determine that it is a GDG so that i will iterate through the loop.
can someone help me giving some idea regarding that..... |

and only if the thing between parentheses is a number
it could be a PDS with a member specified ( SOME.PDS(MEMBER) ) |

| Yes you are right if i find the character between "(" and ")" i can find whether it is numeric or character using DATATYPE syntax...but how do I find the character between both the paranthesis......?????? |
