I have been using the link provided from the start. as noted in the link: stdin.0 must contain the number of lines that are to be redirected to the command. stdin.1, stdin.2, ... contain the lines. that is why on STDIN i coded the ipaddr.I, and that works.
I am just not getting anything back in the output position: "stdout An optional argument, stdout is the name of a compound variable (stem) that, upon return, contains the normal output from the command. stdout.0 is the number of lines output by the command. stdout.1, stdout.2, ... contain the output lines. stdout can also be specified as: The string STACK, if the output is to be returned on the stack DD:ddname, if the output is to be written to an allocated DD If stdout is not specified, your current stdout file is passed to the shell for stdout " When I try and 'say' the output, all that is in there is the text OUT.1,OUT.2,OUT.3 etc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
