Let me know if it’s not clear. In fact, I see I messed up on the comment. It should have been your original READ screen1 statement. It should be replaced by read(e) DELAYTST. Tom

Then try this small change: read(e) DELAYTST ;
// read(e) DELAYTST ;
if DATA = ‘Refresh’ ;
DATA = ‘RE-refr’ ;
else ;
DATA = ‘Refresh’ ;
endif ;
 
The IF-statement stuff just adds a little visual change for the output while testing. The READ statement itself is what’s important.
