Let's say I am in ISHELL on number 3 and I want to swap to number 6 for example. I put 6 in the command and hit PF9 and it goes there. Then I hit PF9 and it goes to #2 for example. I want it to go from 6 to 3.

Or use the "swap list" command and select the logical screen. Or name the screens (SCRNAME aaa, SCRNAME bbb), then swap directly to that screen - SWAP AAA then SWAP BBB. -- Mark Zelden - Zelden Consulting Services - z/OS, OS/390 and MVS mailto:m...@mzelden.com Mark's MVS Utilities: http://www.mzelden.com/mvsutil.html Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
