Scrape output from AMBLIST? POSIX pipes are great for things of this sort. I'll read doc for SDSF to see whether its API provides a way to capture output from operator commands it issues. z/OS's lack of redirection is primitive. I've seen the technique of issuing a command and WAITing an unknowable interval for its output to become available. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
