MPE6.0 has this new feature?  Sounds good.  Currently, I am on MPE5.5PP7 and
awaiting MPE6.5PP1...

Hello,

I am putting together a rudimentary MPEX script that does basic job
scheduling.  The objective is to allow jobs to run sequentially.  The script
uses HIPRI.CMD.VECSL to facilitate job execution but it is bombing at the
ALTJOB statement in the HIPRI command file.  If you'll scroll down to the
$stdlist, you will see that the statement is not failing due to syntax, but
due to an FSERR.  I am confused as to why the HIPRI command file fails in
this BATCH job.  Here's the controlling script, the HIPRI.CMD.VECSL source
code and the $stdlist:

Thanks for any assistance!

Why go to all that much trouble.  If you're on 6.0 use the multiple
jobqueues to single thread the jobs that need it, and multiple thread
others.  Much easier than a do it your self operation.
