Re: PASE is soooooo cool!

You can use the QSH command. Pass it the string to be executed in PASE. The
PASE job runs as a submitted job, but the calling/submitting job waits for
the PASE job to complete and return control before continueing. Therefor you
cannot use any objects in QTEMP to transfer data.
