This isn't a valid example because 'delete' will also work. As Andrew said,
rarely will you

Lionel,
You just want to change the ON value and not the header. Assuming you have a
COPY/SORT step to filter the data, you can change the values there. I am
showing for position 21, but you can change to that 616
The rexxla-members list is a good place to start.

References-in-passing to ooRexx are fine here, I suppose, but if I want to get
into details, where should I go to ask questions? The ooRexx documentation
mentions www.rexxla.org/forum.html, but that nets me a 404 error. And I looked
at comp.lang.rexx (also recommended by the documentation),
In this case here is a sample record
HEADER('PassPhrase') ON(616,10,CH)
The ON value found in the input could be "LEGACY", "KDFAES" or "NOPHRASE".
What I would like to do is change LEGACY/KDFAES to PASSPHRASE if possible.
Thanks

Lionel,
How do you determine which header value need to be used? I am guessing that it
is going to depend on a value in the file. If So we can dynamically change it.

From the testing I have done so far, the z/OS Unix Rexx interpreter SAY command
only writes in EBCDIC. My suspicion (untested) is that the Rexx script itself
is automagically converted to EBCDIC as the interpreter is reading it, so that
the interpreter only sees EBCDIC text.
On a “real ASCII”
I'm not the who encountered it. I'd love to see the trace i output.

Practically speaking however, starting a Rexx script under one of the z/OS Unix
shell programs is pretty much the only way to get it done. Although if you use

You can also EX an EX and get a S0C3. I've never seen that ABEND

This is one thing about using Rexx (or any script language AFAICS) that is
awkward to remember.
My Linux lapdog uses #!/bin/rexx as the first line (and external functions
must be saved with upper case filenames to be found from Rexx code)

IBM promised to never use opcode 00, and that's what I use when I want (E)SPIE

risk is zero.

Interesting:
One more point on this - the very 1st line of the REXX code *must* have /* REXX
*/ starting in column 1. While TSO and VM REXX just care that the word rexx is
in a comment on the 1st line - the shell REXX requires it begin in column 1
with the 1st word being REXX.

Then I cannot easily explain the observed behavior. If you want to pursue,
