<reply type="humorous?"> What he needs to do is use REXX sockets to write a z/OS TN3270 client. This client could then connect as a 3270 terminal to the CICS region and script a signon, followed by entering the CECI command. That solution is not mentioned in the article mentioned and thus may be acceptable! </reply> -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
