I am trying to write a REXX program which will use the Catalog Search Interface to access one system's Master Catalog to return the VOLUME Information for every dataset cataloged in that Catalog. In the documentation, and all of the examples that I have been able to find so far, one parameter that seems to need to be specified is the FILTER, but since I want every dataset, I want to use a filter like *.*, but that doesn't seem to work .
My REXX skills are somewhat limited, and I am trying to use this project as a way to improve those skills, so the more help I can get from fellow users, the better. What I am really trying to do is to duplicate the results I would be getting if I was to issue a batch IDCAMS with a LISTCAT CATALOG(CATALOG.SYS.MCAT) VOLUME command, so that I can find all of the entries that are catalogued with either a VOLSER of ******, or the actual VOLSER of my SYSRES . Is there any way to use the Catalog Search Interface to return all of the entries within a given Catalog without having to specify a filter, or is there some Filter that I can specify which would tell the Interface that I want to return ALL entries ? Any help that I can get would be appreciated. Thanks O.J. Michael Egle MVS Systems Programmer CareTech Solutions, Inc.
