Flipping through the manuals, and testing it, that does seem to be easy enough.
But rather than the number of entries per volume (Word1) , prepending the number of entries per subpool (Word6) would require... Well, I imagine after the JUXTAPOSE (so the Volser and Device-type are now part of each record, see below) , there would have to be a SPEC to put the Subpool in front, and then a SORT (so the Subpools are grouped). And that's about as far as I've managed. So, trying to go from: " AA1A11 3390 2 54 55 POOLA AA1A11 3390 2 194 195 POOLA AA1A11 3390 1 614 614 POOLA BB2B22 3390 500 1 500 POOLB BB2B22 3390 165 1040 1204 POOLB BB2B22 3390 5 1706 1710 POOLB " To: " 1 POOLA AA1A11 3390 2 54 55 2 POOLA AA1A11 3390 2 194 195 3 POOLA AA1A11 3390 1 614 614 1 POOLB BB2B22 3390 500 1 500 2 POOLB BB2B22 3390 165 1040 1204 3 POOLB BB2B22 3390 5 1706 1710 " Or just straight to the VARSET compatible format: " /POOLA.1/AA1A11 3390 2 54 55 /POOLA.2/AA1A11 3390 2 194 195 /POOLA.3/AA1A11 3390 1 614 614 /POOLB.1/BB2B22 3390 500 1 500 /POOLB.2/BB2B22 3390 165 1040 1204 /POOLB.3/BB2B22 3390 5 1706 1710 " Perhaps this would involve one of the more complicated usages of SPEC that Mike alluded to? --Shawn S. -----Original Message----- From: CMSTSO Pipelines Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rob van der Heij Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2016 11:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [CMS-PIPELINES] Not-always-directly-sequential record references in PIPEs > Juxtapose.

Look at VARSET for that. Basically you create records that can set the variables. You might even need the COUNT option of JUXTAPOSE to number the entries per volume... But it is probably much easier to do the rest of your processing in the pipeline as well rather than fill in the REXX variables and loop through them.
