Why not when using TSO %IPLINFO EDIT, from the ISPF Edit command line, enter CREATE and specify C99999 on the 1st line. Then follow the prompts as to where to put the data, or create a new data set using the prompts.

ISREDIT is not a primary ISPF command. Talk about overkill - Why would you create an edit maco to find the RECFM and LRECL? You can look at the output and see it is LRECL=80 by the panel (top right shows "Columns 00001 00080"). Or you could use COLS as a line command. Or you could look at the IPLINFO source and see the attributes of the temp dsn allocated. BTW, on my system I don't get "(temp dsn) was not found in catalog", I get an obtain error if I do what Mike did because my temp dsn is allocated to VIO because it is so small and that's what the SMS rules do.
