If you prefix SRCHFOR with a greater-than-sign it tells ISPF not to process the command against a command table, but pass it through to the underlying application. If that works for you then you need to check the active command tables in option 3.9. On the right hand side on option 3.9 you will see the active command tables. Type each of these in turn into the Application ID field at top left and look if SRCHFOR is present.

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'> //* Cheers, Chris Poncelet Roger Steyn wrote: >Hello Lizette , > > Thanks for quick response .
