Sri Hari, I think the original question was about using REXX in an E15 exit (or equivalently an E35).
This is something I've contemplated doing in the past but the required machinery is beyond me (or at least my patience). :-) I'm also not sure about performance and function : If each pass through the exit (once per record) causes a fresh REXX environment to be created, with fresh variables it's not good: It would be expensive. Part of the charm of a REXX exit would be passing variables between invocations of the exit. On the upside there are lots of possibilities if a REXX exit - whether as a sample or as product function - were created.
