| Please explain clearly exactly what it is that you wish to do, and give as much detail as possible, also examples if you think that it will help explain your question. |

Hi,
Firstly i need to check a word overall in the given PS member and
if the word is suffixed with a X then only i would be able to get to know that its a proper one and i can go ahead with the logic else i need to skip the whole logic. |

So a word has to start AND end with a "X" ?
And for the rest follow expat's advice. |

I think you need to be within the editor and your command needs to be an editor macro.
I think you can use the "FIND 'abc' PREFIX" command so that you only process the matching words. |

"F ALL '"string"'" whole_file
|
Does this return a boolean value 0/1 or true/false. |

It makes me wonder... you are writing a macro, aren't you ?? |

You know what you are talking about - we have confusion 
Suggest you post a few sets of sample data and the "answer" you want when these samples are processed by your code. . . |

I am not sure what 'whole_file' is, but pretty sure you it is not part of the FIND syntax. |

Yup, complete confusion. . .
If the diaolog isn't helping maybe this would help. . . (Also repeating):

You will want to study the Edit and Edit Macros manual. www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/bkserv/r11pdf/#ispf
Write a macro that issues FIND repeatedly, until the return code indicates no more instances are found.
For each time FIND is successful, use CURSOR to find the row and column were the text was found. Use LINE to put the line of text into your rexx program. |
