The return-code of 20 on the 'ISREDIT MACRO' statement is a problem.

Given my admittedly limited experience with edit macros, ought not ISPF Edit be considered a separate environment, so that instead of writing:

'ISREDIT (DATA1) = DATAID'

one should write:

address isredit '(DATA1) = DATAID'

instead?

They're the same. Personally, I prefer the first format.

ADDRESS ISPEXEC 'LMOPEN DATAID('DATA1') OPTION(INPUT)'
SAY "OPEN SUCCESSFUL!"

Are you running batch or foreground ?

Not so very wild guess, but I think you are trying to execute this macro by doing a

TSO MYMACRO nestmac

rather than

MYMACRO nestmac

.

That was my thought as well, but according to a previous post:

I run it with "WCHY CHY"

I run it with "WCHY CHY", it works well, but this year it doesn't work with "WCHY CHY", i have to run it with "TSO %WCHY CHY"

Possibly something has changed in the TSO/ISPF dataset allocations.
