whenever I edit into various members of various pds-s using PDF under ISPF, at the top of the very first screen I get a series of white “caution” and “warning” messages, e.g., (and it happens in just about every member I edit into, some combination[s] of the following) : -CAUTION- profile changed to NUMBER OFF from NUMBER ON STD. data does not have valid standard numbers and/or -CAUTION- profile changed to CAPS ON (from CAPS OFF) because the data does not contian any lower case characters and/or -Warning- the UNDO command is not available until you change your edit profile usind the command RECOVERY ON. << and there are others as well >> I understand what these messages mean, and I know what to do to change the conditions they describe. but I do NOT want to change the conditions they describe, e.g, re: the “warning” message, I do NOT want to change the edit profile back to RECOVERY ON. What I DO want to do is to totally SUPPRESS all those white ‘cautions’ and ‘warnings’ , so that they do not appear at all. (yes, I know, a “RESET” command at the ‘command ===> ‘ will make them go away, but I’m getting tired of that; I’m editting in and out of dozens of pds-s a day, and I’m just tired of it. I want them simply not to appear at all.) I have consulted (RTFM!!) the “ISPF Pannning and Customization” manual, as well as volumes 1 and 2 of “ISPF User’s Guide” to no avail. Has anyone ever done this successfully? if so, how? TIA /s/ tuco bonno; Graduate, College of Conflict Management; University of SouthEast Asia; "I partied on the Ho Chi Minh Trail - tiến lên !!
