				| I invoked ISRDDN and enter F(ree) next to a DDName: 
  	  | Code: |  	  | > F SYSEXEC
 DBSIPO   SHRKEEP  > _         QMF.XXX.SDSQEXCE
 SYSOS3   SHRKEEP  > _         ISP.XXX.SISPEXEC
 SYS015   SHRKEEP  > _         RLX.XXX.RLXEXEC
 
 | 
 I got this error message:
 FILE SYSEXEC NOT FREED DATA SET IS OPEN
 
 I can only free SYSEXEC if I exit ISPF (back to TSO Ready) and invoke ISPSTART.  Can I free SYSEXEC without exiting ISPF ?

				| Must be a site-specific restriction. 
 On my system, I can FREE and ALLOCATE both SYSEXEC and SYSPROC all day long without ever exiting ISPF.

				| I would guess that this is dependent on whether these datasets are allocated in your logon JCL or whether you allocate them later in a logon CLIST/Rexx.  If they are in your JCL then that is why you can't free them. _________________
 My opinions are exactly that.
