Steve,

A couple of ideas to help debug :

(1) Run the exec under dialog test and turn on all ISPF function tracing
- take a look at the ISPF LOG and see if anything stands out. 

(2) Issue TSO "ISPVCALL ON" before running the exec and then "TSO
ISPVCALL" again afterwards - maybe something will stand out in the trace
output.

Subject: Re: ABEND U999 in ISPF

Have you checked the DCB attributes for the ISPF DD allocations? - if
you have a logon exec/clist it could be including datasets that are not
in other peoples environment.

Does the exec work in batch? If so - what happens?

<SNIP>
There is very little difference in the concats. My userid.CLIST has the
REXX being worked on (the one in question) and the typical (for this
shop) local routines for userid specific logon allocations.

The DCB attributes haven't changed. 

The REXX in question works just fine (from the environment's point of
view) when invoked as a subroutine. But when I do it as the top routine,
ISPF falls over with U0999. When any of my coworkers run it, no
problem!!!

The problem first showed up when I was running TRX (which is how all of
us run normally). So I took out TRX and it worked. I left this REXX to
fix something else and then this REXX started falling over when I came
back to it (with TRX out of the system).

OK, now for the batch question.

Ran just fine. And it looks like it will be easier to put the new
functionality in using batch (makes them traces easier to take) -- wish
I'd thought of this earlier.

But I'd like to know why I'm so blessed. This one I can't chalk up to
being ugly and my mother dressing me funny. I don't have to tie my shoes
any more, I get to use Velcro. However, these extra long sleeves do get
in the way from time to time.

Later,
Steve Thompson
