If multiple consecutive steps are to be conditional, I'd certainly use IF. If I wish to disable a single step, it's easier to add ",COND=(0,LE)" BTW, it would be a significant aid to programmers to detect nesting errors if the JCL parser enforced agreement of the labels on the IF and the ENDIF. Has anyone wondered why the parser doesn't provide this support? Is there another semantic of those labels which would interfere? -- gil -- StorageTek INFORMATION made POWERFUL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
