Greetings again,
   A coupla days ago I posted a problem about directing
REXX output to an ASSEMBLE program.  I'd like to thank
the 2 people who responded.  However, I think I may have
been ambiguous and I apologise.
   I need to modify an ASSEMBLE program to call a REXX
program which processes a file and outputs the results
to the terminal.  In other words, I'm running the
ASSEMBLE program to call the REXX program and not the
other way around.  The output of the REXX program may
be very large - 3000 records may be expected, depending
on the size of the file it processes.  To give an idea
of the REXX file, the following is a gist:

/**/

Do Until ....
   :
  Say OUTPUT
End
Exit


My question is: how may I get access to the variable,'OUTPUT',
from the ASSEMBLE program?
A possible solution I thought of was: to send OUTPUT to the
program stack and then get the ASSEMBLE prog to read the stack,
but I'm worried about overflowing the stack.  And also, how
do I read the stack from the ASSEMBLE prog?

Thanks for your attention.

Sincerely
