Gil, I took the "JCL standards" as being site specific. To use your example, if the site has a standard of DISP= being the first parameter on a DD statement, this could enforce that. Placing every parameter on a separate line or making sure all the parameters are in the same relative location or starting in the same column. That kind of stuff.

JED provides complete JCL validation, reformatting and enforcement of JCL standards. ... What's a "standard" Suppose a site has a standard for naming job steps. Can it enforce that? Or only "standards" in the view of the JED author. In DD statements I habitually code DISP as the first option. I may be in a minority. Does JED enforce ordering of options? Might it require or prohibit "DCB=(...)"? (is ""DCB=(...)" ever needed nowadays? I still see it coded on occasion.) -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this message is confidential, protected from disclosure and may be legally privileged.
