Marc, The good thing is we have a copy of the program from web archives. So if you know the exact url of Doug Nadel's utilites then you can always get it from web archives. Here is the link for Queryenq program https://web.archive.org/web/20100311074145/http://www.sillysot.com/ftp/queryenq.txt Thanks, Kolusu IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> wrote on 09/01/2015 01:42:32 PM: > From: Mark Zelden <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Date: 09/01/2015 01:42 PM > Subject: Re: Dataset in use on shared DASD > Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> > > On Mon, 31 Aug 2015 21:21:07 +0000, J O Skip Robinson > <[email protected]> wrote: > > >As for Rexx, being a simple minded person, I would issue the OS command > > > >D GRS,C > > > > and parse the output returned to the Rexx.
