Looks like it didn't come through quite right. The first few lines of REXX got concatenated somehow after I hit SEND. They should be:
/* SEARCH A PDS WITH MEMBER NAME WITH PDSPRE PREFIX, PDSSUF SUFFIX, FOR FINDSTR*/ TRACE O ARG PDSDSN "PRE(" PDSPRE ")" "SUF(" PDSSUF ")" "FIND(" FINDSTR ")" . PDSDSN = STRIP(PDSDSN) Gary Diehl Systems Administration "One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary people.
