Yes <snip> Subject: Re: Deleting UnExpired dataset using JCL
Dave, Are you saying that there is no way to do this using pure JCL? >I know about IDCAMS, but the user wants a pure JCL solution. > In that case I think you will have to use one of the many PARM to control card programs to parameterise the dataset name (optionally volume) and pass it to a deleting program such as IDCAMS. Check the CBT Tape. Maybe some of the data management programs on CBT will delete a dataset specified in the parm. </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
