HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard |

The Question is: Help Please, I have included two .COM files, CEL and CEL1 along with the SET VER and SET NOVER output from SUBMITting them to batch. These command files worked until we upgraded to OpenVMS 7.2-1 from 7.1-2. Can you tell my why my command procedure input is being read twice -- once as command procedure input and once as erroneous command lines? I am inputting data to the command procedure exactly as it states in the OpenVMS Manual (16.2.2). Please do not give the same response you gave to wiz_4810. You can see from the output that my .COM files do in fact read the input but the commands are still within the command stream. The exact same .COM files worked for over a year until we upgraded to 7.2 last Friday. I have also included my LOGIN.COM; so you can see there is nothing there which should cause this command procedure input error Thanks, Chris Lewis christopher.lewis@fredonia.edu ----------------------------- LOGIN.COM: $! $!
