My Rexx Program contain the below given statements which works fine in ISPF environment
"ISPEXEC LIBDEF ISPSLIB DATASET ID('AAA.BBB.CCC')"
"ISPEXEC LIBDEF ISPFILE DATASET ID('XXX.YYY.ZZZ')"
"ISPEXEC FTOPEN"
"ISPEXEC FTINCL EMAIL"
"ISPEXEC FTCLOSE"

I need to invoke these statements form TSO as the Rexx pgm will be automatically executed during logon. What are the TSO equivalents for these.

Please Help
Thanks

arunmr4,

ISPF services are not available before you login to your TSO session. In these cases, you need to manually invoke ISPF via ISPSTART command. There are already lots of threads on this. Pls go through the following links and let us know if you have any questions,

For more information on ISPSTART service, check the IBM manual.
