Thanks. The first TMPFILE was chosen. (Where is that fact actually documented? Anybody? ) Bernard Coeytaux wrote: >Can somebody explain why the temporary dataset is empty in the last ST3 step? I would like to obtain the record written is ST2, not the null from the ST1. Have ST3.SORTIN refer to ST2.SORTOUT with a temp DSN name unique in the whole JCL. Or you can refer to DSN=*.ST2.SORTOUT. Look in JCL Ref for more info about backward reference.
