Hi ITschak, thanks for your repsonse. Unfortunately it doesn't really provide a solution to my problem of not getting notified by ISPF about a scroll request while a block command is incomplete and ISPF doesn't need additional table entries in order to satisfy the scroll request.

You need to save the first dd or cc command Crp location in a variable shared with your program. ITschak נשלח מה-iPad שלי ב-19 ביוני 2018, בשעה 17:44, Dyck, Lionel B.
