I am not sure of when the "optional" parameters are not logged to the 
joblog.  For example if I enter:
CPYSPLF FILE(QPDSPJOB)
It will stop and prompt me for the output file.  I fill it in and press 
enter.  After that my joblog has:
CPYSPLF FILE(QPDSPJOB) TOFILE(ROB/MYFILE)

        Subject:        Retrieving Command like F9


I have a need in a CL program to capture the complete command that was 
entered to execute the CL program.  What I think I am looking
for is a way to programmatically "press F9" and capture the result.  I 
cannot find any interface to do this .... is it possible?
Some obscure API maybe?

A bit more information ... there is a command definition for this CL 
program that includes prompting for optional operands.  The
user enters the command name and is prompted for the other operands; in 
the job log only the "originally" entered operands are
present; those that were optional are not in the job log, so since F9 uses 
the joblog to retrieve previous command, it seems F9
would not retrieve all operands, however, this seems to be in conflict 
with normal interactive operation.  For this specific case:
operator enters "T1 DEVICE(TAP02)" and is prompted for OPTION.  Joblog 
shows "T1 DEVICE(TAP02)" but as CL program begins it is with
"T1 DEVICE(TAP02) OPTION(A)" because operator was prompted for OPTION and 
filled it in.

Thanks for any advice ... Chester Hood
