There are lots of incarnations. It was late and I was rushing. What I should have said is that there is the source of a CLRSCRN module on the MAINT CMS mods disk but the module on the ?¡°Y¡± disk but it GENMODed to load into the user area.
So you can¡¯t run it using ¡°system()¡±.? A ¡°CLRTPA¡± module could be made by just loading it elsewhere. It could be made into a subroutine quite simply, you might need some calls to flush the IO before it.
You can see the source by logging onto MAINT and doing CMSACC to access the CMS mods disk and it will be on the ¡°B¡± drive.
I remember a VMFCLEAR module and another VMFCLR module. I do not remember what level of VM or if they were transient modules. Neither one would have been too large to get the text and load/genmod as transient.

Tom,
You need to use a DIAG 58 ?call. There are no character sequences that clear the screen. I think the simplest solution is to create a ¡°clrscrn¡± module that loads in the transient area and run that with the system command.
I am trying to figure out to perform a clear screen form a "GCC C" program.? I am using the wc3270 program on WIndows to talk to Hercules VM370.? I have tried several different hex codes with no luck.? Has anyone using "GCC C VM370 CMS" sent a command to clear the screen.
