I think you need to escape the parentheses. And I don't see the magic '//' in your command, but that may be just your message. So, cp -U -M "//'hlq.data.set\(member\)'" /u/me/pdsdir/... assuming this survives emailing. I just read up on this researching a related problem. Seems the // notation is really twitchy. sas On Wed, Jan 8, 2020 at 2:03 PM Lionel B Dyck <lbd...@gmail.com> wrote: > Using BPXWUNIX in a z/OS REXX exec running under TSO/ISPF I'm getting > an error that does not occur when the command is entered directly > while in OMVS. > > > The command is cp -U -M "'hlq.data.set(member)'" /u/me/pdsdir/ > > > > The error is: > > > > FSUM6258 cannot open file "//'hlq.data.set(member)'": EDC5061I fin > error occurred when attempting to define a file to the system. > > > > Any suggestions? > > > > Thanks in advance > > > > Lionel B.
