Hi Terry,
Please observe that the file designators DDFS, DDFS.SYSOPER
and DDFS.SYSOPER.SYS ARE NOT THE SAME ! (sorry for shouting!).
In your example you have not declared a designator
for *DDFS.SYSOPER.SYS, and so MPE does not know
what it is, but you have declared a file designator DDFS.
If you change your echo to ECHO !DIR > *DDFS , the thing will work.
Alternatively, you could change your file designator to
FILE DDFS.SYSOPER.SYS,OLD
That will also make it work.
You may find it helpful to use a designator which is not related in name
to the output file to avoid confusion until you get the hang of it, eg.,
FILE LOGFILE.HERE.THERE=DDFS.SYSOPER,OLD
ECHO !DIR >> *LOGFILE.HERE.THERE
or
FILE DINGO=DDFS.SYSOPER,OLD
ECHO !DIR >> *DINGO
Cheers,
Tad.
