This page shows a list of some of our Rexx execs that
we want to make available.

We would definitely recommend the use of Rexx over clist and we thoroughly recommend Michael Cowlishaw's book " The Rexx Language: A Practical Approach To Programming". It is a wonderful reference book, in it's own right and an invaluable learning tool when it comes to Rexx 'how to' type questions. |
Some of them will need tailoring to meet your own site requirements but we have placed comments in them to identify which lines need to be changed. You may also require a copy of our prepped ISPF panels which are available here. If you would like the source code to the panels please contact us directly and we will make them available to you.
As ever you are free to use this code but please read our disclaimers and copyright information.
A full TSO XMI file of all the code is available here.
If you prefer an IEBUPDTE version of the file, it is available here
In addition to these Rexx Execs we have made available some of our Edit Macros. These are available here

| Checks to see if a VSAM KSDS needs reorganising or not. For installation instructions click the button below. For installation instructions click the button below. This program is distributed as a TSO TRANSMIT file. The source code is included. The file will need to be transferred to a z/OS system in binary format and then RECEIVED. Link to information page click here. A demonstration video is available on YouTube™ by clicking here. | ||

| This routine will return the name of the TSO user currently executing the EXEC. It will call the Rexx EXEC, PROPER to format the name correctly. The routine PUSHes the data onto a stack for the calling EXEC to retrieve it. | ||

| Validates a passed volume serial number. The volume serial number must follow IBM naming standards and has to be online in order to be considered valid. VALIDVOL requires our assembler program ASLVTOC. | ||
|
| ||
| A Rexx utility for helping to create XMIT files ready for file transfering. It has many features including, filtering members, creating a log and/or an index, allowing messages to be added to the file, doing multiple files in one execute. For installation instructions click the button below. This program is distributed as a TSO TRANSMIT file. The source code is included. The file will need to be transferred to a z/OS system in binary format and then RECEIVED. Link to information page click here. A demonstration video is available on YouTube™ by clicking here. | ||

| ||
| Update a VTOC bypassing regular dataset enqueues. This is useful for dataset being enqueued by the system itself. This file is only available upon request. Link to information page click here. A demonstration video is available on YouTube™ by clicking here. | ||
