Beverly, If you are referring the same temp dataset with 2 different DDnames in the same step, then you probably need VOL=REF something like this //STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT //SORTOUT DD DSN=&&IN,DISP=(,PASS),SPACE=(CYL,(1,1),RLSE) ... //STEP0200 EXEC PGM=ABCD //INA DD DSN=&&IN,DISP=(OLD,PASS),VOL=REF=*.STEP0100.SORTOUT //INB DD DSN=&&IN,DISP=(OLD,PASS),VOL=REF=*.STEP0100.SORTOUT Kolusu ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
