Dear All,

Could anyone please let me know the way to move a 58th Column word to 55th Column. Are there any command to make all the word starting VOLUME at 58th column to 55th column ?

For example :

000003 DSNAME(SYS1.LINKLIB) VOLUME(MT3RS1)

The VOLUME(MT3RS1) move to 55th column from 58th Column.

Do you mean in the ISPF editor?

Apology For not using code tags and I will make sure the code tags are used.

Yes

Hi All,

I could see a similar thread :http://www.ibmmainframeforum.com/tso-ispf/topic6399.html

I will try it out with above option. Thanks enrico

Depending on what you want, you could also look at BNDS coupled with Change or column shifting. It is all in the Help/Tutorial. If you don't know the editor well enough to know this already, take some of your own time out from time to time, go through the PF1/Tutorial, and practice. You'll save yourself lots of time if you know the full capabilities of the editor.

Dear Billy/All,

I even tried with BNDS option :

First do BNDS and COLS commands, then move your BNDS boundaries. Then you use X over all those lines you don't want to change. After that you enter ((3 on the first and (( at the last line.
And of course, make a backup BEFORE and SAVE after changes.

Thanks,
Jaggz

And if you have RECOVER ON there is always UNDO for those I-wish-I-hadn't-done-that-just-now moments.

and keep pressing enter...

Hello,

When experimenting, it is advisable to make a test copy of the member. . .

Then you don't risk destroying the original

Use VIEW and if all is OK, just do a "repl .zf .zl"
