Bertram, Its pretty usable. Easiest way to see what does and does not work is to open EE (you need a file name & type) ?type HELP. Use PF2 to see the individual files. Dave ?

Subject: [h390-vm] Is the following automation possible?? Hello, ?I'm not understanding how to use the EE editor as a XEDIT replacement.? Are there good instructions on doing this and what is not woriing? Given EE is not yet working like XEdit.? I'm wondering; is it possible to automate VM/CMS file editting a file by using KEdit on Windows, instead. Given KEdit for Windows is very much like XEdit, my thought is to use KEdit to edit the file.? This process would need to transfer the file froom VM/CE to Windows, start KEdit, and transfer the editted file back to VM/CE. As I understand a virtual machine can have VM/CP issue a Hercules command(s). (DIAG X'08'). Question: Can Hercules run an ooREXX program on Windows to transder the file from VM to Window and start KEdit?? Once editing completes the ooREXX program would return the file back to VM/CE from Windows. 1) Start prgram on CMS to have Hercules start an ooREXX program to: ?1A) Move? a file from CMS tto Windiow. ?1B) Start KEdit in Windows. ?1C) Oncce KEdit is done, move the file from Windows to CMS. 2) CMS program ends with RC depending up final result.
