This is one of the few irritants of MPEX.

Since the syntax of MPE PURGE and MPEX Purge are different I have a
command file I use to replace the purge command when I want no
confirmation:

PARM FNAME
SETVAR INSIDEMPEX, 0
IF !INSIDEMPEX > 0 THEN
   PURGE !FNAME;YES
ELSE
   PURGE !FNAME;NOCONFIRM
ENDIF

Subject: MPEX Issue

I am running a command file from within MPEX and receive the
following=20=

messages:

Executing PURGE TEMPJOB;NOCONFIRM;NOSHOW
Error: MPE-style wildcard syntax is not supported.

The command file runs properly under MPE and is shared with other users,
=
so=20
I don't think I can change it.=20=20

Is there something I can set to have MPEX handle this MPE-style purge=20
command properly?  Running on MPEiX 7.5 and MPEX Version 32.
