≫ Q1. Is it APARable or I just missed something? 2. Records are copied from VB to FB and remaining space after last character is filled with X'00', but I need X'40' - regular space character. Q2. Is there any trick/option to specify it?
Radoslaw, Filemanager does indeed support all of your queries. To pad with blanks you need to have the parm PAD=ON and for ddnames for output you need to have a COMMA Here is sample JCL //STEP0100 EXEC PGM=FILEMGR //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //PDS01 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.vb255.pds01 //PDS02 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.vb255.pds02 //FBPDS01 DD DSN=&SYSUID..COPIED.FROM.PDS01, // DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE), // SPACE=(CYL,(75,25,100),RLSE), // DCB=(LRECL=80,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=0,DSORG=PO) //FBPDS02 DD DSN=&SYSUID..COPIED.FROM.PDS02, // DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE), // SPACE=(CYL,(75,25,100),RLSE), // DCB=(LRECL=80,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=0,DSORG=PO) //SYSIN DD *,SYMBOLS=JCLONLY $$FILEM SET PAD=ON $$FILEM DSC INPUT=PDS01,OUTPUT=FBPDS01,MEMBER=* $$FILEM DSC INPUT=PDS02,OUTPUT=FBPDS02,MEMBER=* /* Thanks, Kolusu ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
