Hi everybody,

We can execute the Rexx program by EXEC command and without a compilation. So this could make everybody see the my source program. Everybody could know the logic and revise it without a authority.

So What can I do to prevent this from happening? :shock:

Put you source code in a password protected dataset.

Why you cannot compile your source?
To run your program with PGM=MYREXX on a OS/390 or z/OS you must compile it with STUB=MVS, and for what I know is the only way....(but as usual I can be wrong.)
Tell us your problem with compiler... We are here to help you if you need...

How could I compile my REXX code? Do I need any utility to be installed in my mainframes in order to get my REXX source compiled?

You would need the IBM Rexx Compiler.

Are you working on OS/390 or in z/OS or other?
usually you will find in your sys1.proclib a proc named REXXCL
( or in SYS1.SFANPRC)
This is the proc of compiler that will execute the REXXCOMP.
Tell me if you can find this.
