Thanks for the pointers. I would never have guessed the cause. However, there
may still be reason for an SR: 'FFSP' does not show up everywhere in Help
panels. For example,
SET ?
PARM INVALID
<PF1>
HELP: SET Commands to Set Options
Select a SET command by number, or press Enter to view them in sequence.
1 - ACTION Action characters
2 - BROWSE Default browse action character
3 - CKLIM Number of checks to displayed on the history panel
4 - CMODE Communications mode for sysplex data
5 - CONFIRM Confirmation
6 - CONMOD Console name modification
7 - CONSOLE Extended console
8 - CSORT Cursor-based sort
9 - CURSOR Cursor placement
10 - DATE Date format
11 - DELAY Timeout value
12 - DISPLAY Display of values
13 - DUPDS Dislay [sic] duplicate SYSOUT data sets
FFSP is not listed here, although it does show up in other contexts. Also it's
a bit unusual for IBM to change default behavior without giving some mechanism
to set an installation default.

Interesting! Though I'm not sure I'm getting that exact behavior. I can place
my cursor on the JOBNAME and then press enter, and it will behave as if I had
placed ? in the NP field and pressed enter. But I can't tab to the job name.
It bypasses it and goes to the Ptry column.
Does anyone know how to activate "point and click" for Micro Focus Reflection
Workspace TN3270 emulator? If I point to the field and double click it simply
highlights (reverse video) the job name value.
Frank

It is because JOBNAME is now a point and shoot field. Tab to it, and you get
the equivalent of ? next to it. Go up to Options, 3- Screen, 9 Change fixed
field point-and-shoot to OFF, and you get the old behavior.

**CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL**
**DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected
emails**
For as long as I can remember, the SDSF DA display marks 'swapped in' tasks
with highlighting on all columns, including task name. In z/OS 2.3, we notice
that columns are highlighted *except for* task name. Cannot find any doc on
this change from 2.1. Worth an SR?
