IC52693: MACRO RECORDER DOES NOT RECOGNIZE NEW SCREEN WHEN "AUTO ENTER" IS USED.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The macro recorder does not recognize  a new host screen when
  "auto enter" is used. The host system advances to the next scree
  n but the macro recorder does not add a next screen.
  

Local fix

• This issue can be worked around by stopping the macro recorder
  and starting the recording on the new next screen. Start the
  recording on the last key stroke and insert the new host
  screen.

  correctly.

• The HATS macro recorder was updated to recognized when a
  screen has been automatically submitted to the host.  If
  this happens a new screen node will be added to the
  macro tree.
