When you are typing in the PFKEY definitions with XEDIT, put a hexadecimal 05 immediately after the 1. VMOPERATOR treats hex 05 in special ways, such as for an indicator to turn highlighting on and off. In the case of the prepared command, the hex 05 is ignored and treated as a blank. An easy way to get the hex 05 onto the PFKEY definition (not to insult your intelligence, but for the sake of completeness ;-) is to enter the PFKEY definition line and then (with HEX ON) do a "CAP X'05'". There you have it. -Mike Karolchik
