REXX syntax error

[WinstonsMom]

I'm getting the following syntax error. The application is trying to launch a menu onto the user's desktop. Any ideas on how to correct this problem?

>>>   "SELECT CMD(%DMSUMAIN T30.V1P5 DEFAULT LOGO) NEWAPPL(DMS) PASSLIB"
INVALID COMMAND NAME SYNTAX ]

This looks a little like an ISPF Panel selection line. Is it?

 

[Rexxplorer]

was an ADDRESS ISPEXEC issued prior to this line?

 

[WinstonsMom]

From what I can understand, the SELECT command is supposed pass control to subroutine DMSUMAIN, passing 'T30.V1P5' and 'DEFAULT' and 'LOGO' parameters. But the SELECT command isn't working, so it never gets to Subroutine DMSUMAIN. Had the command worked, the program would have launched an ISPF menu panel.

Will the command work in ISPF ?

No, it won't work as a stand-alone command. The error message says it has to be done from within the calling program.

 

[WinstonsMom]

Yes, ADDRESS "ISPEXEC" was issued prior to that command.

It sure still looks like an ISPF Panel selection to me.

Try

ADDRESS TSO

"%DMSUMAIN T30.V1P5 DEFAULT LOGO"

Hope this helps
