yes yes yes, i'm not that daft. :-) this is easy to show and hard to explain. i want to tell PF9, swap, to swap between 2 and 4, and not 4 an 1 (if I am on screen 4). there is a way to do it. I have to go to one screen and swap between it and another and after a while it works and then...
oh nevermind. i'll get over it. ________________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Steve Comstock [st...@trainersfriend.com] Sent: 23 May 2011 22:15 To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: PF9 Swap question On 5/23/2011 1:08 PM, Mike Schwab wrote: > On Mon, May 23, 2011 at 1:39 PM, Patrick Lyon<ptl...@midamerican.com> wrote: >> On Mon, 23 May 2011 18:22:13 +0200, Lindy Mayfield >> <lindy.mayfi...@ssf.sas.com> wrote: >> >>> I have been using multiple ISPF screens for many years now, 12 or so.
