There is no such animal "built in" to z/OS or JES2. I am not very familar with JES3, but I think that "Dependant Job Control" will do this. The TSO bookshelf, which includes the books on CLIST and REXX is at: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/Shelves/IKJ4BK60 What I do is have all the JCL in a single PDS, each job in a separate member. The last step of job "n" does an IEBGENER to copy the PDS member of job "n+1" to the INTRDR. Something like: //SUBMIT EXEC PGM=IEBGENER,COND=(0,NE) //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD DUMMY //SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR) //SYSUT1 DD DSN=my.pds(nextjob),DISP=SHR // -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
