Steve, >What is it you need to do once it ends? Do *you* just need to know that >it has run? Do you need to do something once it runs? Do you need to >know how it completed?
Well, currenty I "only" need to submit the job and need the information that it ended. But I guess in the near future I need more: is it running, which step and how it ended/abended. I could use the internal reader, but the problem is that I don't get back the Jobid of the job and so I can't check (even not by looking into SDSF) if the submitted job has started..... bye, Michael ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
