Exactly. Adding /*REXX*/ on the first line is a good (and non-hurting :P ) practice to be sure your rexx programs will work in any environment. For example, I'm not sure they would work if you put them in a different library than the one for your SYSEXEC (or SYSUEXEC) and called them with the EXEC command.

I understand what you're saying and I was just trying to help save some time. Nevertheless, I tested his version of the code and mine. Mine works well while his doesn't, so I'm pretty sure what was his errors.
