Hi all,

new guy on the board here! ..and asking questions already....

Ok, here's the problem: I want to get a line (or more) of text from an ISPF panel while NOT in edit mode (i.e. an edit-macro does NOT work for this - I've tried). I'm pretty sure that it is a 'model' panel, which displays infos about TSCM projects.

Yes, I could go through the entire menu structure and find out which panels and execs are being used, and from which ISPF table the data is read, but there's gotta be a better way.

Background infos: the ispf panel is within a product called TSCM, a 'pr-number' is generated, and under the pr-number all of the programs are stored. I want to obtain this list of programs and then perform some QA automagically on them (eg. check if the level is updated, that an implentation date is in the source, etc. etc. etc.).

Thanks in advance for ANY help given.

Hi -

I'm not I completly understood what are you looking for, but here you'll see a beautifull example from Mr. Doug Nadel, showing how to capture screens.
