Re: When editing file, can not edit more then one file.
- The only "files" in z/OS are the data on magnetic tape between the beginning of the tape and a "file mark," or the data between two "file marks." Do not call what z/OS calls a "data set" a "file." They are much different.
- ISPF has had the ability to edit more than one data set at a time since its inception more than 40 years ago in the 1970s. In fact, by the 21st century, it could edit up to 8 data sets at a time. What you cannot do is have two independent edit sessions operating at the same time for one data set. I have to admit there have been times when something like that would be desirable, but ... You can be editing a data set in one ISPF window and "browsing" the data set in a second ISPF window in one TSO session, though the browse window will not see the updates applied in the edit session. If you mean something different by "multiline edit," please enlighten us.

The first image shows a data set being edited in one ISPF window, and the preparation to browse the data set in a second ISPF window. The second image shows both ISPF windows after pressing the Enter key in the browse window.

Re: When editing file, can not edit more then one file.
Be sure to use the ISPF command to start ISPF and then select option 2 to edit a data set.
From the original post, re: "multiline edit", I think the poster is using the EDIT command of TSO instead of the ISPF editor.
