<snip> Is it possible in the JCL to avoid coding LRECL for datasets which created new. If it can be automatically understood based on the COBOL program creating then any change to the code will not require JCL changes. </snip>
IIRC Amlan, if you do not code a record length in the JCL and you explicitly code one in your COBOL program it should use the LRECL out of the COBOL program.
