Just to be sure, you have written a REXX program for Windows before? You can make a program run and 'SAY' some jibberish on the screen? <SNIP> Yes, a few years ago using NT. <SNIP> I don't want to assume too much and I'm not trying to be patronizing :) Are you opening a file inside the REXX? If so, how are you accessing that file? <SNIP> Yes, I am opening a file, but we haven't even gotten to the first line of executable code, which is TRACE "I". <snip> What are you using to edit the REXX program? What format is the file? UTF-8 or ASCII? What line-endings did you specify? Windows uses CR+LF, while UNIX uses LF, and z/OS uses steam-powered wooden cogs. <SNIP> "(editing it with NOTEPAD)" <SNIPPAGE> Regards, Steve Thompson ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
