Hi Rick, Yup, Diag/DiagRc will both do the trick too - I've never been a fan of the Diag/DiagRc syntax however. I originally used PIPE to do this, but as I said, you then need to get concerned with the default PIPE separator stage (I suppose setting it to some character which cannot be entered via the keyboard might do the trick - probably ought to do that instead of EXECIO as well).
I guess by even mentioning EXECIO I'm showing my "age". :) Michael Coffin, VM Systems Programmer Internal Revenue Service - Room 6527 1111 Constitution Avenue, N.W.

I have to recommend Diag(08,'SEND'...) or Diagrc(08,'SEND'...) instead. This is probably the Pipelines fiend in me: even though I'm not using Pipes in this case, I have an anti-EXECIO thing now. ;-) > /*Send commands to Linux on SUSE0001 in mixed case*/ > Trace Off > Address Command > Parse Arg Command > 'EXECIO 0 CP (SKIP STRING SEND SUSE0001' Command > Exit Rc /*Send commands to Linux on SUSE0001 in mixed case*/ Trace Off Parse Arg Command Parse Value Diagrc(08,'SEND SUSE0001' Command , With 1 Rc 10 . 17 Rs '15'x .
