Here it is again, hopefully formatted correctly this time <grin> ...

I suggest that you run your searches in batch (it's faster, allows you to search for multiple strings in multiple PDSes and also writes the 'hard-copy' output to a sequential dataset) - as follows:

//*-------------------------------------------------------------------*
//* 'SEARCH FOR' IN BATCH                                             *
//*-------------------------------------------------------------------*
//* //SEARCH EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC, // PARM=(SRCHCMP,'ANYC') //NEWDD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=<your PDS DSN>
//          DD DISP=SHR,DSN=<any more PDS DSNs to search>
//          DD <ditto, etc.>                            //             ...
//OUTDD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=<whatever, with DCB=(RECFM=VBA,LRECL=125,BLKSIZE=27998 - or specify SYSOUT, if you prefer> //SYSIN DD * SRCHFOR '<whatever string #1'> SRCHFOR '<whatever string #2'> ...
SRCHFOR  '<whatever string #n'>
//*

Hello Lizette ,

Thanks for quick response . I had already tried that , but it didn't show up .(It says member not found ) . I suspect that something is missing from my logon proc , but not able to locate what exactly it is .

SRCHFOR, might be  a REXX/CLIST that does that or an ISPF Command table
entry.

The easiest thing to do is use ISRDDN

TSO ISRDDN on any command line

Then issue M SRCHFOR
See where it turns up

Greetings  ,

I know this is a silly question . Unfortunately I am not good at ISPF and
needs some help to fix a problem .

I have a problem with SRCHFOR command in ISPF . Normally , when a srchfor
command is issued by passing a string in 3.4 , it returns a response
'String(s) found" or "not found " . But in my system , SRCHFOR command
directly takes me to 3.14 panel . what should i do to fix this ? I do not
want 3.14 panel to appear for every srchfor attempt . Please advise

Thanks & regards,
Roger
