Hi,
May I know how can I place the curser to be at specific location , like end of the line.
Example:
Say "Enter Your Name:"
Pull Name
So when we run this I need the curser sould be pleace at last of SAY instruction , not at new line which I am getting now.
Enter Your Name:_
Thanks,

Not possible in REXX, unless you use external non-REXX code.

You can do it on PC Rexx using Charout but on the mainframe you have to call something else to do it for you. A short CLIST (spit spit) to receive a parm of what to write using WRITENR is what you need.

At one level, I'm inclined to agree with NicC. I got out the Rexx manual to see if there was something like the CLIST WRITENR command, but I sure didn't see anything obvious.

but the TS, given the proper zOS and components level might try to play around with the
REXX stream data I/O
