Both questions regard COBOL

1. JCL EXEC ...,PARM='parameter'
Can I read data from PARM field in EXEC statement ?
Any ACCEPT ?

-----------------<unsnip>----------------
Can't answer; never learned COBOL.

2. Dynamic allocation
Can I use permanent dataset without DDNAME ?
In other words can I specify dataset name instead of ddname ?

--------------------<unsnip>---------------------
No. But you CAN make use of the DYNAM subroutine, from the CBT site. Works very well.
