Hi Haribharath,

today only i have seen your query..

Just type C ALL '*' ' ' 3

this will make all the command line to active lines..

Hi Main,

Why "3" and not "7"?

Hi mmwife,

for eg the jcl is looks like this

000240 //* MAINTENANCE HISTORY:

if we want to replace the '*' with space we have to give in the cmd line

C ALL '*' ' ' 3

Bcoz the system wont calculate the numberings(000240) , So 3 is the 3 rd column. * lies in 3rd column.
