The JCL below
1. Sets symbolic &SFX = "A"
2. checks if a dataset exists,
3. if it does exist it changes the symbolic &SFX = "B"
4. for the dataset used in the Step3.
However, processing ALWAYS falls into the THEN path even when the RC = 0.
What am I missing?
Note: this is just test JCL to verify the changing of the &SFX symbolic works.
Thanks for any insights!
