Have you looked into REXX procedures.  The command is STRREXPRC
SRCMBR(MEMEBER) SRCFILE(*LIBL/QREXSRC) PARM(PARMS).  IBM's site has manuals
on how to create REXX macro's.  Good Luck

Hi,
   I am facing the following problem. Would appreciate if someone can
provide me the solution.

Currently we are testing an application and for testing a particular test
case repeatedly with the same data. We have written a macro to perform the
same

The way we want the testing is given below.

1. Enter the Test case number in a screen

2. The Test case number would be validated in the database(which we will
create) and the pgm associated with that test case will be called and the
screen pertaining to that program will be displayed.

3. At this point the pgm depending on the test case called should trigger
the macro to be run and the macro will run.

This is the automation which we are envisaging.

And I don't know how to make the AS/400 system to call a macro.

To summarise the AS/400 will validate the test case number and if found
valid should trigger a macro.

I would appreciate if someone could tell me how an application can trigger a
macro.

Thanks
Vijay
