Streamx will set systemvariable with the job number "STREAMXJOBNUMBER".
Pick the job number of from there and don't bother with redirecting the
standard list.

Subject: Re: VPLUS (VTURNOFF/VTURNON) Question
Thanks to all who replied to my posting and gave me *invaluable* assistance.
Thank you. However, a slight problem exists, let me explain:
This app allows the user to stream jobs -- works great (excluding Vesoft's
STREAMX). When the job is streamed I capture the job number which is
shown at the top of the screen. Example:
The following has been submitted #J1234
Great! However, the way I capture the job number is to run the program to
a stdlist file (RUN pgm.group.acct;stdlist=STDFILE
When the job is streamed I open and read the stdlist file to retrieve the
job number.
Now I have introduced the concept of VTURNOFF/VTURNON to allow the user
to answer STREAMX prompts if they exist. Well, the user isn't seeing the
prompts because they are being written to the stdlist file!
So then I tried running the program without the stdlist=STDFILE.
Now I get the STREAMX prompts just fine but I am no longer getting the job
number on the screen where I expected/wanted/needed it to be. Ho hum.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I may solve this problem.
BTDT, anyone ??
TIA,
Brian.
