problem with VPUT / VGET !!
karthick I
Me again !! ... Can anyone help me out with this VGET and VPUT??...
I tried using this VPUT to pass a variable to a macro, but i get a RC of 8
and the VGET (written in the macro) apparently gets a null value and hence
the macro abends.
Infact sometime back it worked well, but now its not .. I have no idea
why....
This is how the lines are
i get the values for word1 and dsn frm the user
/*****rexx********/
address ispexec
"VPUT ("WORD1") SHARED"
"EDIT DATASET('"dsn"') MACRO(MAC1)"
EXIT
The macro is like this
.......
address ispexec
"VGET ("word1") SHARED"
address isredit "FIND "word1" FIRST"
........
........
Is there any way by which we can clear the buffer or somthing so that i can
start executing the macro afresh.!!??
Thank you all
Karthick.I

I believe you want to remove the quotation marks from the variables.
Instead of:
"VPUT ("WORD1") SHARED"
try:
"VPUT (WORD1) SHARED"
...and same for the VGET.
HTH,

I don't like the fact that you are letting WORD1 be resolved.
If WORD1 is not used in calling REXX it should work as it will have the
default value of its name, but I somehow suspect that you are assigning a
value to WORD1 in the calling REXX otherwise it would always have the same
value.

Initial exec that does edit:
/* rexx */
address ispexec
testvar = "ABC DEF" sysvar('sysuid') date()
"Vput (testvar) shared"
"Edit dataset(jcl.cntl($job)) macro(mac1)"
The edit macro that is called:
/* rexx */
address isredit
"Macro"
address ispexec "Vget (testvar) shared"
say testvar
hope this helps
