Issuing a macro command

Postby dkm1987 » Sun Feb 24, 2013 1:28 pm

I've created a pgm - ABCD (basically does copy of a pds member to another, which we use very frequent in our project ) - which I would like to call as a macro by just giving ABCD from any panel in ISPF, rather than giving like TSO ABCD (which I'm aware on how to acheive). Why I would not prefer to use it as TSO ABCD, coz the pgm also takes 2 input arguments (TSO ABCD XXXX YYY). so it would be a more convenient, if I can eliminate atleast the keyword TSO. Can someone tell me if its possible and if yes, how to acheive?
