It's possible the OP wants to pass values between steps. The guaranteed
way to do that is with a temporary data set.
There was s discussion here lately of environment variables. Questions I
never saw clearly answered:
o Are environment variables available to any program, regardless of language?
o Do they require LE or C RTL?
o Do they endure from step to step?
o Are they rooted with WXTRN environ and structured as in POSIX?
