  This APAR is making the following enhancements:
  1. Users of the CCF ISPF Dialog component can execute scripts
     of IMS commands coded in a member of a PDS allocated to
     the CCFPROC DD statement with substitution for symbolic
     values occuring at the time the command list is invoked.
  2. Users of the batch component can cause a wait to occur after
     an IMS command has been issued.
  This APAR also corrects a problem in a subroutine which
  analyzes database names coded in IMS commands that contain
  wild card characters.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• Modules CCFCMD00, CCF9CMD0, CCF9ATB0 and CCFMASK8 have been
  modified for this APAR in order to provide a small program
  enhancement (SPE) which will allow users to execute IMS
  command scripts with symbolic substitution occuring for
  values specified when the script is invoked. Also added is
  the capability of causing a delay after an IMS command has
  been issued using the batch component.
