hello

I have a problem with the command that hilite playing tricks on me.
When I positioned HI cob cobol in a cobol's member, the color is right. But if, in the same PDS, I open a JCL's member containing JCL, it displays the coloration cobol ! And vice versa !

Why ?

The highlighting is determined by the type of library (third qualifier of three); it has nothing to do with the content of a member (which would be far too difficult and time-consuming to determine with even marginal reliability). Edit FOO.BAR.COBOL(anything), and it will be highlighted as COBOL.

Hi,

I called my PDS Mypseudo.COB.SOURCE. I renamed Mypseudo.CXX.SOURCE. This does not change. It takes the last command HILITE. if the last order is HI JCL, all members are colored like this.

Try setting HILITE to AUTO

Not always a concern. I have also the problem of only one PDS. For others, all goes well.
I get the message that appears at the bottom of the screen:

Color and symbol settings have been saved in the ISR application profile.
All other HILITE settings were saved in the edit profile.

I was too fast. It works now. I have taken HILITE = AUTO.

Thank you.

Hi,

I am new to FOCUS, kindly help me with the command to HILITE Focus code. I have tried with Hi Focus, Hi Auto etc. but none of them is working. Please help me.

try pf1 -> i -> h and then enter the number for hilite (may be on the next page). Then try the manuals. What did you find regarding Focus? Now, the hard part, use your brain - as far as I can remember FOCUS use COBOL-like syntax so try using COBOL colouring.

Hello,

Suggest you try IBI Support (Information Builders). They can tell you if there is a hilighting option for Focus.

This would be an extension (i believe) rather than part of standard tso/ispf.

Thanks Dick for the suggestion.
