I couldn't recall the older utilities until you mentioned IEBUPDTE. Then I recalled DITTO, which use to have a card image to member function. However I don't recall if it was limited to DOS or OS.

Paul, 1 . What are the RECFM and LRECL capabilities of IEBUPDTE? A. I assumed that OP has considered the RECFM and LRECL of his existing PDS when creating the sequential Input. 2 . (And no one has suggested DFSORT or its utilities.) A. I could have suggested using DFSORT, however I do believe in using the right utility for the right job. If I were to use DFSORT to create 2 new members from a sequential input, it would require a PDSE to copy in 1 pass or 2 passes of data for PDS Thanks, Kolusu IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> wrote on 03/19/2014 10:21:50 AM: > From: Paul Gilmartin <[email protected]> > To: [email protected], > Date: 03/19/2014 10:22 AM > Subject: Re: Help with IEBCOPY? > Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> > > On Wed, 19 Mar 2014 10:15:53 -0700, Sri h Kolusu wrote: > > > >Apart from IEBGENER, you can use IEBUPDTE to create a new member from a > >sequential Input.
