Hey @all

My z/OS loops always with the message: "IKJ56700A ENTER DATA SET NAME".
I can write what I want, but it doesen't change anything...
I'm using the "Quick3270 Freeware Edition" emulator.

What can I do?

Thx for answers.

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Not to worry For many people here, English is not thier first language.

What do you want to "change"?

Have you logged onto TSO/ISPF?

What menu option did you then choose?

Maybe it will help if you post what steps you followed to get to this message. When i've seen this, it is usually when i've tried to do a rename. . .

thx,

Have you logged onto TSO/ISPF?

firstly, I logged on with the Command "L TSO" then i came to the ready promt, and there i wrote ISPF and came to the main menu. There i wanted to start a cobol programm and then the message appeard!

What do you want to "change"?

I want to leave the loop^^

Hello,

There i wanted to start a cobol programm and then the message appeard!

How did you try to "start" the cobol program? Is the code to be worked on or was this an attempt to execute some already compiled code?

When did you enter a userid/password?
