Hi,

Is this being done in batch?  Foreground TSO?  Other (specify)?
We need more context.....

I'm use the ex command in BRAS(member) of the my datset see;

VIEW              BRATIME.TIME.CHRIST    ---------------> my dataset
Command ===>
          Name     Prompt       Size   Created
___EX______ BRAS    *Edited         34  2008/09/09 ---- -> dataset member
                       **End**


see my program rexx BRAS:

/* REXX para mostrar o dia da semana que cai o natal. BY CLAUDIO MARCIO */
/***************************************************************/
/* Say 'Calculate Christmas day in year ?' */
 Say 'Este programa informa em que dia da semana foi ou sera o Natal',
     'em determinado  ano, que ano quer saber ?'
 pull year
do until answer \= "S"
 if year = "" then year = right(date(),4)
 dec25 = date("B",year"1225","S")//7
 select
    when dec25 = 0 then day = "Segunda-feira"
    when dec25 = 1 then day = "Terca-feira"
    when dec25 = 2 then day = "Quarta-feira"
    when dec25 = 3 then day = "Quinta-feira"
    when dec25 = 4 then day = "Sexta-feira"
    when dec25 = 5 then day = "Sabado"
    otherwise day = "Domingo"
 end
 if year < right(date(),4) then
    say 'Em 'year', o natal foi 'day
    else
    say 'Em 'year', o natal sera 'day
 say 'Deseja saber mais algum ano ? (s/n)'
 pull answer
 if answer = 'S' then
    Say 'Vamos la entao, qual outro ano voce gostaria de saber!!'
    else
       do
         say 'BYE! BYE!'
         leave
       end
 pull year
end
exit

I put my money on he is changing it. To get the first error I did a cut and
paste of his code and changed the leading x40 to x20 and got the same first
error. It then works. Changing anything outside the apostrophes caused the
same problem. Thus his second error is coming from somewhere else.

Why would you expect someone who can not code a simple say statement to
turn on trace and find his own problems when he has the listserv to do his
work?

   when I run my exec REXX the error appears:
        1 +++ ?
   IRX0013I Error running BRAS, line 1: Invalid character in program

... clearly a Rexx message.  Is Claudio changing the conditions of the
problem without informing us?  Or is his script being interpreted as a
CLIST, or open code in SYSTSIN, which contains a token which causes an
invalid Rexx exec to be invoked?

Is this being done in batch?  Foreground TSO?  Other (specify)?  We
need more context.
