[comp.lang.asm370] IBM7171 Transparent Writes

C09615TB@WUVMD.BITNET (Timothy Bergeron) (05/10/90)

I'm writing an application to do transparent writing through an IBM7171
protocol converter. I am using CMS 5.6 (VM/XA 1.2.1) and the CONSOLE macro.

When run the application within XEDIT, I get the following message:

    DMSXSC917E No windows are showing virtual screen XEDIT

Does the transparent write destroy the XEDIT vscreen environment? The
application works fine from full-screen CMS and from ISPF programs.
If I save the vscreen information, run the application, and define the
vscreens from the saced information, everything works fine.
