HI,
I am getting error while opening a dataset in EDIT / VIEW mode. The message is "No format found". I can only open in browse mode. I searched for the same in Forum and I found some solutions. But this is not working for me. Can someone suggest as what needs to be done ! |

Is this errors comes from ISPF editor?
Can you post the datasets attributes (LRECL, DSORG, RECFM etc.)?

Code: |

Put the / in when you select a member and this will display a second screen. In this screen blank out whatever is in the format field. |

This is not related to any particular dataset. For every dataset I am getting the same error. |

Hi Expat,
I'm unable to see PROMT when I'm in ISPF 3.4 listing.
Code: |
File Display Library Settings Menu Utilities Test Help Exit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-IPT--VIEW L1------ GNANAS.PLI.SOURCE ------------------------ROW 00001 OF 00016
COMMAND ===> SCROLL ===> CSR
NAME RENAME LIB VV.MM CREATED CHANGED SIZE INIT MOD USERID
FREAD 1 01.19 07/11/21 08/10/10 09:05 2322 2201 19 GNANAS |
Please let me know the use of PROMPT and how to get it. |

That does not look like a standard 3.4 screen to me. |

Hi,
Open any PDS in 3.4 option, you can get the member name and then PROMPT will be there. |

Yes, you are correct.
My TSO/ISPF is enhanced with SPIFFY.
I just wonder if I can get PROMPT. |

No, it's a good enhancement to ISPF. We have many useful commands in handy because of SPIFFY. |

Instead of selecting the member via a 3.4 member list, select it after using E as a line command on a data set list. For my version of ISPF, it makes a difference. |

Sorry, I did not meant to put down SPIFFY. Its just that in this specific case, the user wanted the prompt field that SPIFFY did not provide. |
