Hi, Rob.

This: "Also OPS/MVS supports translating FMODIFYs to R,xx responses."

Thanks for the hint.  If the REXX exec I scarfed earlier doesn't do the 
trick, I will research this.


Cheers,,,Steve

Hi Steve 

I didn?t read all the replies, maybe below discussed.

Via an exit IDMS accepts console commands. This exit can also be coded to 
accept FMODIFY commands rather than post a replid. . 

Also OPS/MVS supports translating FMODIFYs to R,xx responses.
 
Now you don't need to concern yourself with knowing the reply number. 

Rob

We don't have IDMS. But we do have some other products with "hang a WTOR"
that needs to be replied to in order to shut them down (IMO, poor 
architecture!). We use CA-OPS/MVS. What we do is look at each outstanding 
WTOR and look for the proper MSGID to which to reply. The code looks 
something like:

    temp = OPSTATUS("R","S","*") /* scan all WTORs */
    DO WHILE QUEUED() > 0
       PARSE PULL WTOR
       PARSE PULL LINE2
       FROMSYS=WORD(LINE2,4)
/* Check that the message is from this z/OS system */
       IF FROMSYS<>OPSINFO("SYSNAME") THEN ITERATE
       PARSE VAR WTOR REPLYNO MSGID .
       IF MSGID = 'CA-7.574' THEN DO
       ADDRESS OPER ,
         "R "REPLYNO",STOP"
       END
       END
    END

Hopefully this will be of some help, should no one else have an an exact 
IDMS rule available.

Wasn't there something about a PASCAL programmer knowing the value of 
everything and the Wirth of nothing?
