Lizette,
It is in JES2. I was able to print the selected time period using the PRINT to 
dataset option which allowed me to then FTP the log to IBM support.
Thank you for responding. 

regards, Bill J.

 Where is your syslog located?

If still in JES2 Spool, and you have SDSF, then the PRINT command in SDSF will 
work.  This can print to a file or you can print to your TSO Session, the use 
XDC to print to a dataset of your choice



If it is in an external dataset, you have the following options (no particular 
order)

  REXX
  DFSORT
  SAS
  COBOL
  ISPF EDIT (if the file is not very large)
  PL/1
  SAS
  IDCAMS
  Also check the cbttape.org and see if there are any tools there you might use

Basically, if it is in a seq file, you can use any tool you like to copy the 
data.  You just need to know the first line you want to copy to the last line 
you want to copy.

In ISPF EDIT that is a RELATIVE LINE NUMBER on the VIEW or EDIT Panel

Everything is pretty much dependent on where your SYSLOG is and whether or not 
you need to create your own process.

Use a function you are familiar.
