Mike,
How are you setting the parameters from your REXX proc? My first thoughts would be related to mismatched single or double quotes, or not ‘escaping’ a single quote in the proper manner when you need a single quote as part of your ‘data’ stream.

Did something like this back in my VSAM VTAPE configuration but I did it all in JCL. The tapes internal volume numbers where basically unimportant and were generally a constant. However, the file names were all unique based on the date (or cycle) of the run. This was formulated and stored in a LIBR member that was SLIed into the job stream. My understanding is that REXX is like a proc in that symbols are not passed back to the level above automatically. This could be key to your problem. In any case, I love the VTA but the z114 is our last soldier so we’ll live with ESCON to the bitter end. We handle the VTA much the same way in that all out files are a unique name on the VSE label so it tracks really well by the DOS file name.
