Depending on what you are doing, why not have a single-record dataset with a unique character pattern, call it 'dsmark' and put it into the concatenation: //DD1 DD DSN=dsname1,DISP=SHR // DD DSN=dsmark,DISP=SHR // DD DSN=dsname2,DISP=SHR // DD DSN=dsmark,DISP=SHR // DD DSN=dsname3,DISP=SHR ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
