Here is what I suggest:

::::IF NOT Fexists("NTOKEN('!IAFILE',1,'.').CODEHIST")
::  :: ECHO
::  :: ECHO &dB!IAFILE HAS NOT BEEN RUN THRU THE VALIDIA COMMAND YET
::  :: ECHO
::  :: ECHO  &dDPLEASE ISSUE THE FOLLOWING COMMAND FROM THE COLON PROMPT
::  :: ECHO
::  :: ECHO  VALIDIA !IAFILE
::  :: ECHO
::  :: ECHO IF THERE ARE NO ERRORS YOU CAN RE-STREAMX THIS JOB
::  :: ECHO
::  :: exitexit
EXIT
::::ENDIF

Hope this works for you.
Get EXTREME with you MPE(X)

Subject:        STREAMX QUESTION

I have a job stream file that I streamx.  Within this file I have an 'if'
statement that check to see if a file exists.  I only want to examine the
name of the file, not the group.  The if statement works well inside of MPEX
but when I streamx the file it fails.
The file does exist in the group it's look for.

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong here?



Here's what's in the variable   IAFILE = IA120215.TSLARBAR

::IF NOT FINFO("NTOKEN('!IAFILE',1,'.').CODEHIST",'EXISTS')
:: ECHO
:: ECHO &dB!IAFILE HAS NOT BEEN RUN THRU THE VALIDIA COMMAND YET
:: ECHO
:: ECHO  &dDPLEASE ISSUE THE FOLLOWING COMMAND FROM THE COLON PROMPT
:: ECHO
:: ECHO  VALIDIA !IAFILE
:: ECHO
:: ECHO IF THERE ARE NO ERRORS YOU CAN RE-STREAMX THIS JOB
:: ECHO
:: EOJ
::ENDIF
