Hi, Thanks for your information!
I should rephrase my question, I know how to use JCLLIB / INCLUDE statement within a JCL but I don't get your idea about "externalize your individual PROC rqmt conditions and enclose the IF/THEN/ENDIF statements as needed for the first and subsequent PROC executions." I've tried your sample before, using the "SET RUNCHECK=" symbolic and then set the value to 'RUNCHECK' before STEP0002 (and even before STEP0003 to STEP000N) to ensure condition is checked correctly before PRCSTEP1 is executed. (of course, it failed with JCLERR with invalid reference of .RC as you've mentioned) However, I don't know the concept of your example given can be archived (no JCLERR) by using INCLUDE statement... are you talking about I should use INCLUDE statement to contain EXEC statement + COND code checking??
