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, Terry Martin Lockheed Martin - Information Technology z/OS & z/VM Systems - Performance and Tuning Cell - 443 632-4191 Work - 410 786-0386 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
