Can I use DSN referback using nested procs?

I have a JCL procedure CCPROC which invokes PROC=EDCCB. PROC=EDCCB has two steps compile and bind. Bind puts the output in SYSLMOD. I would now like to refer the the SYSLMOD data set elsewhere, for example //LIST EXEC PROC=CCPROC //EXEC PGM=MYPROG //STEPLIB DD DSN=*.??.SYSLMOD The doc says

Sri, I used some various types of JOIN UNPAIRED - thank you! I did the job. Observation: JOIN steps need significantly more memory than regular SORT. 48M was not enough. I changed it to 128M. Now it's time for learning - while I can use some statements I do not necessarily know what can I put

Re: OMVS Sort Question

Pipe it through two sort commands? And does sort helpfully avoid rearranging records with the same key value? Cheers, Martin Martin Packer WW z/OS Performance, Capacity and Architecture, IBM Technology Sales +44-7802-245-584 email: martin_pac...@uk.ibm.com Twitter / Facebook IDs:

Multi step sort least significant to most significant. Card sorters did 1 column at a time. But the single step with correct options is better. On Thu, Sep 9, 2021 at 7:24 AM Lionel B. Dyck wrote: > > I tried sorting by field 1 ascending and then a second sort with field 2 > descending (-r)

Re: COBOL compiler option to list libraries from which COPY members were loaded?

Yes, but it is of little use if you are stuck using the DB2 and/or CICS preprocessor utilities (instead of the coprocessor facilities in the compiler) and use EXEC SQL and/or EXEC CICS statements in COPY members extensively. All COPY members containing EXEC SQL / CICS must be pre-resolved

my explanation was lost in the post, but before CUT and PASTE were available in ISPF I picked up that rexx from some MVS toolkit, it has some examples of using edit line commands in an edit macro, from that example I have used the line command in other macros when needed. Carmen On 9/9/2021

I, D, C, CC, RR and DD are not ISREDIT commands or assignment statements. The issue is whether there is a way to issue line commands from an EDIT macro, not whether you can issuethem from a keyboard. There is an ISREDIT INSERT command that has the same effect as an I line command, but they are
