Your problem is caused by using lower case characters in your CART parameter
value, the value of variable MyCart. If you used all upper case, or all
numerics, it would work fine.
That's not documented anywhere that I've thus far been able to find.
Cheers,
Robert

What is wrong with this Rexx? (I spent about two hours debugging before I
solved it.) The problem is right here on this page: the answer is NOT something
in RACF or JES2. It's not something missing: it's a sin of commission, not a
sin of omission. The below will never work. That is, the output will always be
RC = 4 , Msgs = MYMSGS.0 , Msg.1 = MYMSGS.1. Why?
/* Rexx to test command/response */
MyCart = "MyCart01"
"CONSPROF SOLDISP(NO) SOLNUM(400)"
"CONSOLE ACTIVATE"
Address Console
"CART" MyCart
"$DQ"
RC = GETMSG('MYMSGS.','SOL',MyCart,,1)
Say "RC =" RC ", Msgs =" MYMSGS.0 ", Msg.1 =" MYMSGS.1 "CONSOLE DEACTIVATE"
