>> What characters are allowed in JCL when specifying member name?

Radoslaw,

In general, PDS member naming rules are ( assuming code page 037)

•       A member name cannot be longer than eight characters.
•       The first member character must be either a letter or one of the 
following three special characters: #, @, $.
•       The remaining seven characters can be letters, numbers, or one of the 
following special characters: #, @, or $.
•       A PDS member name cannot contain a hyphen (-).
•       A PDS member name cannot contain accented characters (à, é, è, and so 
on).


ISPF also supports the same.

Special/national characters may differ based on the code page


Thanks,
