Save the 'promptSearchString.mac' and 'searchString.mac' in the ACS Macro folder.For Windows, this would typically be 'C:\Users\%username%\Documents\ibm\iAccessClient\Emulator' IBM probably didn't think it was worth providing a Position To field for Work with Module List panel. I wrote this macro when I had to eye-ball search a very very long list of module names in Work With Module List (DSPMODSRC - F14). WRKQRY is another panel that may have a use for these two macros. And also repeat search for next occurence. If you know a part of the field text, you can use this macro to search the 'Select and Sequence Fields' panel and auto page-down until it finds the field with matching text. If you are (still) using STRSQL, locating a field on prompt screen(F4) could be troublesome if you have several fields. This macro is very useful if either an IBM panel or an application program does not provide a 'Find' or 'Position To'. The 5250 ACS macros 'promptSearchString.mac' and 'searchString.mac' can be used to search a string in a 5250 display session. IBMi ACS macro to find string on 5250 Display Session
