List,

I downloaded from http://www.mainframeweek.com/journals/articles/0080/A+REXX+program+to+list+GDG+information a handy little REXX program. In the program were the following lines:

if  zedlmsg^="" then

if  left(j2g_data,4)//4^=0 |,

if  rc^=0 then

In all cases, when I issue a TSO GDG filename, TSO complained about these statements. Since I didn't recognize what the ^ character was supposed to do, I deleted it from all 3 statements and the program ran fine and produced expected results.

But just in case, does anyone know what the ^ is supposed to represent? My search in REXX documentation has been futile.

Thank.

Steve Wiegand
