Hi Curtis,

Sure, you should be able to do this. Essentially, the OBJECTS field would
appear just as it would were you to specify it from the command line
interface.

It would help to see your problem in more context, i.e. output from QUERY
SCHEDULE F=D for the problem schedule, dsmsched.log file, and dsmerror.log
file. Make sure you don't use the QUIET option so you see as much info as
possible in dsmsched.log.

Regards,

Andy

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
