Wow, so much batch!

How about ISPF EDIT sequential file
CUT A
CUT B

Edit PDS(A)
PASTE A
EDIT PDS(B)
PASTE B

Sri gave the solution I would have used, ie IEBUPDTE

since the subject of a RECEIVE can be anything you decide, two RECEIVES
with OUTDSN(PDS(A)) OUTDSN(PDS(B)) would be another non-batch method.

The plain old IEBGENER would be best batch option for a non-source type
dataset, since IEBUPDTE is for 80 byte cards....
