Hi,

While viewing or editing a PDS member or a flat file using 3.4 option, I am getting "Format not found Error" as shown below -

Code:

DSLIST            RSUCMAR.USER.TEST.COPY                      Format not found
Command ===>                                                  Scroll ===> CSR
           Name     Prompt       Size   Created          Changed          ID 
V         EXX6YYY1                161  2008/07/01  2008/07/01 04:26:53  RSUCMA
_________ EXX6AAA1                529  2008/12/08  2008/12/08 14:45:32  RSUCMA
_________ TESTERR                  11  2008/12/01  2008/12/01 02:57:40  RSUCMA
_________ TESTSAV                  21  2008/12/04  2008/12/04 01:29:34  RSUCMA
          **End**                                                             
                                                                             
                                                                             
                                                                             
                                                                             
                                                                             
                                                                             
                                                                             
                                 
                   The specified format does not exist.                   
                           




ButI can view or edit the datasets using the view panel or edit panel. I checked the "Format Name" field on the view entry panel but I see no entries in it. I also checked the 3.11 option for format names that exist but could not find any.

Can anyone let me know the issue and its resolution.

Thanks

Code:

            Name     Prompt       
S_________ $member   /     

Somehow you got a value specified for "Format". Put the / in when you select a member and this will display a second screen. In this screen blank out whatever is in the format field.

Thanks a ton Bill. I did enter RES by mistake in the Format Name. The issue is resolved now.
