REXX documentation belongs with REXX and in the case of quoting, it's only mentioned because SDSF support received multiple calls caused by special characters. Since most people go directly to the examples, it doesn't surprise me this has never been corrected. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
