Assuming your in edit, you could EDIT a non-existing member name and PASTE into it and look. The data will remain available to be PASTEd until you do another CUT (with the same identifier).

Thatz what i need. Cut DISPLAY..Thanks

Hi William,
When you perform a CUT, you can assign a name to the cut portion like
CUT name1

All such assigned names can be displayed with CUT DISPLAY

I've been using TSO/ISPF for decades and never knew about CUT DISPlay.

Now I see how to keep the CUT value after a PASTE: after the CUT, do CUT DISP, then toggle ("O") the cut member (e.g., default) to read-only. After PASTE, it's still there!

Thanks.[/u]

I've always (multi site) been able to multi paste after a cutwith no special process. Ther may be installation and/or user defaults.

Anybody out there ever hear anything about this?

Once I (re)discovered CUT and PASTE, I found that, without any additional input and like a Timex, it just keeps PASTEing and PASTEing...... icon_smile.gif

Guys -

Defaults for CUT/PASTE can be set using the editor settings. To enter the editor setting panel, simply type EDSET when you are in editor.

My default for PASTE is DELETE, and in those occasions when I want the data to be kept, I simply type PASTE KEEP.

The big advantage of cut display is the edit option. You can do anything you do in ISPF edit of a member or DS (I'm sure it's the same function).

I've cut chunks of JCL then used the copy cmd to add a job card before I pasted. Very convenient.

If you're doing multi pastes you can make changes before hand and only do it once.
