Hello All,

Does any know how to key an OS command that if it exceeds 80 characters, the
next line can be used?

I'm building a subfile using SET REPORT DEVICE DISC QTEMP/BOB to build a set
of OS commands and then using USE QTEMP/BOB(BOB) to execute them.  However,
the file QTEMP/BOB has a maximum of 80 characters and some of the OS commnds
will exceed that limit.

For example, the FMTOPT(*NOCHK) portion of the command below would be cut
off.

$CPYF FROMFILE(ABCDEFGHIJ/FILENAMEXX) TOFILE(QTEMP/F) CRTFILE(*NO)
MBROPT(*ADD) FMTOPT(*NOCHK)

Help?
