This sounds like a debugging routine. It would seem logical to process all the variables with you default buffer size and then individually get the ones that were truncated.

For a normal GET you can just redo the request with a bigger buffer and IRXEXCOM will tell you how big it needs to be. For GETNEXT however you must start again from the top as a a specific GET will destroy the information that REXX stored for GETNEXT. At least that is how I read the documentation, and experimentation seems to prove it. :>So perhaps what I really need is a GET LOCATE. -- Binyamin Dissen <bdis...@dissensoftware.com> http://www.dissensoftware.com Director, Dissen Software, Bar & Grill - Israel Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me, you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.
