Thanks Chuck,
That did it.  TOO many Quotes....  Not enough Quotes.... Wrong type of Quotes.
I appreciate you input.

It sure would help if you separated your single and double quotes.  The first 
single quote below should be a double quote.  (The string preceding FN1 should 
match the string following.)  The REXX statement should be
    SRC = LISTDSI(" ' " FN1 " ' " "NORECALL")
