Don't use //SYSIN DD * (the stuff from CBT) /* (optional)
Instead, use //SYSIN DD DSN=the.input.from.CBT(member),DISP=SHR The problem is that when you use DD *, the first card with // in columns 1 and 2 is interpreted as JCL, thus terminating SYSIN. Alternatively, you can say //SYSIN DD DATA,DLM=$$ (or almost any 2 characters of your choosing) IEBUPDTE input $$ DATA means that JCL cards are expected in the input, and tells the reader to ignore them and place them into the generated SYSIN data set. By default, it will look for /* in column 1 to signify end-of-file. However, there are times when /* will appear in column 1 (think JES2 JECL or no-longer-required end-of-data cards) and the DLM gives a means of specifying the end of data marker (columns 1 and 2). Personally, I prefer the DSN= on the SYSIN DD card. Later, Ray -- M.
