What do you mean by "In my Panel I have associated the function key PF05 to invoke another panel"?

Function keys should be assigned a string which comes in to your program as a command on a command line. Then the panel logic or program works with the command. You should never be checking for specific keys in either your program or your panel logic.

semigeezer,
I am invoking a panel by checking for PFKEY5 = 'PF05'. This is not working for me when I execute the Rexx program from the command prompt as

I don't know what PFKEY5 is. All ISPF supplied variables start should with the letter Z. You'll need to give more info about what you are doing for us to be able to get an idea of what is happening.

I am assigning PFKEY5 a Variable/String assigned with Function keys in Panel as below

&PFKEY5 = .PFKEY

Inside Rexx program I am using this PFKEY5 = 'PF05' for trapping PF05 functional Key.

I have removed the PF05 logic completely.

Now my new issue is PF09 is not working in my panels. For Swaping btw screens.
But PF02 is working as default. Please can anyone help me.

When I searched for the above issue I got something like
)PANEL KEYLIST(ISRHELP,ISR)
)PANEL KEYLIST(ISRSNAB ISR)

How to use this KEYLIST

It would be interesting sometime to see the end product of all of this. I'm curious as to what benefit all of this adds to the end user of the application.
