Which reason can cause the first statement get the return code 20? thanks,
"ISREDIT MACRO (NESTMAC) PROCESS"

Hello,

Is this macro in a library concatenated to the SYSPROC or SYSEXEC?

SURE, i did the following step before run TSO WCHY CHY,

1: allocate ddname(sysuexec) dsn(pds.CLIST) shr reuse
2: altlib activate user(exec)

NOTE: my REXX program and Macro stored in myuserID.pds.CLIST

This is what happens if you try to execute an edit macro using "TSO mymacro".

For those who doubt, give the command

followed by and look at the resulting trace output.
You cannot run an edit macro prefixing it with "TSO". Not, absolutely NOT. FULL STOP. DON'T TRY. NOT!

but I run "TSO CHY" successful, why?
note: CHY is a macro.
