Richard,
What environment is this pipe running in? Clearly, DELETE USER is not a
native CMS command.

Subject: COMMAND vs. CMS
I have a file containing records that look like this:
DELETE USER JOEUSER fpid (TYPE NOCONFIRM
This file is read by a pipe and the commands passed to a stage for
execution. I have seen and heard the arguments for using COMMAND vs. CMS
stages, so I passed the records to COMMAND (as in 'PIPE < fid | command |
cons'.) Nothing happens as a result. If I change the COMMAND stage to CMS,
the commands are acted upon. Funny thing, an appended command of "ERASE fid"
does get executed in either instance. There must be some simple explanation
for what is happening, but I must be even simpler. What am I missing?
Thanks,
Richard Schuh
