If you want to get the output of a CP command in a REXX program use EXECIO.

Hello,
I have an EXEC that I wish to use to TRANS the console files from another
userid for a given period of time. I would like to check if the userid
given the EXEC actually exists.
I looked at the CMS QUERY which does stack the results, but userid is not
part of the CMS query. The CP Query does let me know about the user,
but doesn't stack the results.
The CP MSG (and SMSG) & IND USER don't care about the userid, and an invalid
userid is always NOT LOGGED ON.
It looks like I almost need to spool and close my console to get the
results of my CP Query. I suppose I could just issue the TRANS against an
invalid userid and let it fail.
Any thoughts from the group?
Thank you, Dave Hansen
