I can enter the command
to merge all output files from a job into one browse dataset file (browse.jobname).
My question is can you specify the name of the output file.
Instead of browse.jobname can I specify it should be output as browse.newname.
I searched the forums here and even google for 'tso qsa' but I'm coming up empty. Any help would be much appreciated.
Ohh, and is there a shortcut to the rename option in panel 3.6?
I incorrectly guessed this...
| Code: |
| COMMAND ===> RENAME BROWSE.DATASET3 BROWSE.DATASET4 |

QSA is a command, exec, or program that is specific to your shop; you must ask your site support for assistance with it.
Your ISPF Utility (option 3) menu also sounds as if it has been customized; 3.6 is the hardcopy utility here. |

If Google doesn't find anything, you can pretty much assume that the command is a site-specific command. It could be a program in REXX / CLIST, or some other language.
The one sure thing, though, is that you will have to talk to somebody AT YOUR SITE to find out about it -- we don't work at your site and have no idea about qsa.
Why not use option 3.4 and rename the data set there? |

Try to find the member QSA:
TSO ISRDDN and then in comand line M QSA |

Thanks for the tips!
I'm sure our menus are customized. My 3.6 is probably Robert's 3.4 which I currently use to copy/rename. You must be right about the QSA program too.
I appreciate your assitance! Thanks again for the help.
<boring background info>
I work at a satelite office for a large national company. The admins are in some far off land and basicly unreachable/unapprochable unfortunetly. My boss knows the system pretty good but most things beyond having to do with compiling / install requests are "not my job". We're just the lowley users/programmers here. My job is to write cobol.
I have a process I occasionaly run which involves running a job with different inputs which produces output files based on the jobname. I use QSA to merge those into a browse file then usually print it to compare some data. I was trying (on my own) to save paper/trips to the printer floor by renaming the file each time before I run it and comparing it on screen instead of on paper. I was further trying to make it faster by finding a command line rename function. Maybe I should reseach making a macro rexx prog to do this rename for me... |

| you may try TSO ISPVCALL ... and if you have it then TSO ISPVCALL second time... it should bring dataset - try to find SYSEXEC - I believe the member should be in the one of dataset concatenation ( or in SYSPROC concatenation) |

We are most likely on "lock down" from most things admin related. |

Yes, that one works. It lists a few pages of sys, db, and 'myusername' files. |
