|
|
Hello,
I have some REXX EXECs, for using them anywhere else, except the Command option(option 6), I have to prefix the command with TSO, like TSO SQLCHELP. I wanted to know how we can use the routines without prefixing TSO, any where in the System.
Thanking you,
KRSK |

How do you invoke it outside the command option (6)?

Hello,
Yeah, We can execute in the command lines where we give commands. For example, in the 3.4 option, a command line exists, there we can invoke the REXX routine, by prefixing it with TSO. But I want to invoke REXX routine without prefixing TSO.
Thank you,

Any reason for not using prefixing TSO? |

Hello,
Yeah! I am developing some routines, to be used by other users also. So if prefixing by TSO is not required, it will be more convenient for users to use the routines.
Thanking you,

The only way I know is to define your REXX as a command to ISPF.

What's wrong with the fine manual?

| Specifically, look in the manual for command tables. You may want to have your system programmer set up ISPF to allow you to use them or you can usually use ISRCMDS if the site is not using that already. Do NOT update ISPCMDS since that can change |

Hello,
Yeah! For eliminating TSO prefix, we have to add it to the ISPF command table. But I could not find proper way of doing that. Can you please site me some examples of adding commands to ISPF table?

Use ISPF option 3.9 to add commands.

Hello....
I tried adding the command to the table. In our installation we have two tables, PDF and ISP. I used option 7,4 for adding the command to the table. But the problem is that, only I can use that command, for other users they have to prefix it with TSO. So how can I make that command usable to all the users?
Thanking you |

When you save a command table, it is a member named PDFCMDS or ISPCMDS in your ISPTABL dataset (or whatever prefix with suffix of 'CMDS').
But to actually use the command table, it needs to be in your ISPTLIB concatenation. It probably works for you because your ISPTABL dataset is in your ISPTLIB concatenation (that is the way it should be).
To share a command table, it has to also be in the other person's ISPTLIB concatenation. So move the xxxCMDS member from your IPSTABL dataset to a shared dataset. |

In the ISPTABL dataset, there is only PDFCMDS, no ISPCMDS. So if I add any command to PDFCMDS, for making it sharable, I have to place PDFCMDS in one of the ISPTLIB allocated dataset(shared), isnt it the case?
Thanking you,
