nadh,

Are you using PCOM to login to mainframe? If so there is an option to specify the initial command and you can specify ISPF over there and you will be at the main ISPF menu. See below screenshot

Alternatively you can add the commands to your logon exec

I believe that the Command ===> on the logon panel is executed when you LEAVE ISPF. I have it set to LOGOFF so that when I =x, or just x, out of ISPF then my session is terminated.

the only reason it is executed when you leave ISPF is because the ISPF startup is in your logon proc. It runs after the logon proc.

IMO if you get to READY keep it
This is often hidden/restricted - if you have it you have more control so keep it
If it is for users control things in the logon proc exec

This is all very site specific and is setup in your shop this way for some reason (or not). It requires detective work on your side to find out how that is set up in your shop. It also requires that you can access the data sets in question. I am sure that there are threads here explaining it all. To start with, you can look at the procedure that you use (in kolusu's example TSOUSER) in your proclib - how ever that is named at your site. Follow the thread from there - (PARM=nnnn) points to the Rexx/Clist that is used when your TSO is started. Good hunting. An alternative is to ask somebody in your shop.
