Hi,

I want to invoke IEBCOPY through a REXX program. I would like to know if 
there is a way to obtain the SYSIN control statements through a 
variable/Queue?

My rexx program has something like :

"ALLOC FI(SYSUT1) DA('"inputdsn"')"
"ALLOC FI(SYSUT2) DA('"outdsn"')"
"ALLOC FI(SYSPRINT) DUMMY"
"CALL 'SYS1.LINKLIB(IEBCOPY)'"

I know if I code "ALLOC FI(SYSIN) DUMMY" it would generate a default SYSIN 
statement. However, I want to copy only selected members from 'inputdsn' 
to 'outputdsn', so the default SYSIN statement wont serve my purpose.

The other option that I know would be to temporarily allocate a dataset, 
EXECIO the control statements I need to that dataset and then delete the 
temporary dataset after the call to IEBCOPY. However, I was just wondering 
if I can 'pick-up' SYSIN control statements from a variable/queue?

TIA
Varun
