But it is NOT using the "address TSO" and the TSO/E "CALL" command. It's using the REXX "call" statement, and invoking your program as a subroutine of the REXX exec. In that case, it will not run authorized. You need to use "address TSO call" as gil indicated, but his syntax was a bit wrong. Try: address TSO "call *(CICSCMDT) '" ARG1 "'" Note that before ARG1 that's a single-quote followed by a double quote, and after ARG1 it's a double-quote, single-quote, double-quote. The actual command should end up as (after interpretation by REXX) as call *(CICSCMDT) 'contents of ARG1' -- Walt Farrell IBM STSM, z/OS Security Design ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
