In your LOCATE stages, the Rexx variable GUEST must be outside of the quotes
so value substitution happens.

Hi
In the pipe command below where GUEST is the name of a Linux that I PULLED
from a previous SAY. I want to use GUEST in the LOCATE can I do this and if
so is the syntax correct? I have tried this but it does not work unless I
put a specific Linux name in the LOCATE. This is just a test EXEC while I
get a feel for all of this.
SAY 'LINUX GUEST ID'
PULL GUEST
'PIPE CP Q NAMES | LOCATE /GUEST/ | SPLIT | LOCATE /GUEST/',
'| > LINUX USERS A'
USERID = 'LINUX USERS A'
PARSE VALUE STREAM(USERID,'C','OPEN READ') WITH OK FILE_HANDLE
IF OK /= 'READY:' THEN
DO
SAY 'NO LINUX USERS LOGGED ON'
END
'CP I CMS'
EXIT /* RETURN TO CMS */
Thank You,
