Subject:	SCOUG-Help: REXX SYSFILESYSTEMTYPE command

Content Type: text/plain

Ben, I believe the problem here is that you are probably using Classical
REXX, not Object REXX. I looked in the Classical REXX online help
(CREXX.INF) and could not find the SYSFILESYSTEMTYPE command. Object
REXX has a few more functions, and some enhanced functions, compared to
Classical REXX.

Therefore, I'm going to make an amendment to my request to anyone. If
you are using Object REXX and have JFS and/or Super FAT, would you
please try my REXX script and then tell me what the return is for JFS or
Super FAT.

Thanks in advance.

Ben, thanks for your effort.
