Dave,

The only manual I've been able to locate is the Programmer's Guide. Plus I bought a copy of Colishaw's book. Do you know what the number for the Reference manual is? I've seen several of OS/2 and DOS, but nothing except the Programmer's Guide for i5.

Thanks.

Jerry,
There are two REXX manuals for REXX on the i5, the Programmers Guide and the Reference. And, as you may have found, there a HUGE number of other books and articles via the web on REXX as it has been used on many other platforms, mostly IBM, for years. Also, I can't remember if there is a manual or not but I have examples of how to use SQL in REXX on the i5. If you build any serious REXX applications on the i5, SQL will be key to manipulating files in an advanced way.
Thanks for your comments and let me know if I can clarify how to program in REXX on the i5.
Sincerely,
Dave
