Re: How force dataset non-SMS?
I stick a DSORG=PSU or DSORG=POU as appropriate on the allocation statement (DD or otherwise). One has to use a non-SMS volume of course otherwise it abends. Unmovable datasets cannot be controlled by SMS. Dunno whether that is specific to here or an ACS rule of thumb. Can't remember where I got it from. Try it.

This is just for a one-off test. This does not have to work at customers or anything like that, nor is it some "permanent solution" to allow others to do this going forward. 2. I am not an SMS administrator and for political reasons I am trying not to involve the SMS administrators. I don't have the ability to change the SMS rules. (No, I am not going to make a mess: the test job allocates the dataset in step one and deletes it in step two -- both IEFBR14).

Re: Regular Expressions in ISREDIT z/OS 2.01
Steve, I did mean what I said but I was only referring to the RC construct being able to do mass changes but only selecting lower or upper case to change to the same case. For example, change a to b and A to B. The change command is still missing one capability I would love to see. The ability to set variables in the first parameter. C rc'sys(a|b)' 'tmp$1' That is change sysa to tmpa and sysb to tmpb.

I love this new feature because I can now change lower case to lower case and upper case to upper case separately in files. Do you mean change lower case to upper case? Of course you could do that before; for example === c p'' p'' prefix changes the next leading lowercase letter to its uppercase version (of course, this only works correctly with character sets that distinguish between uppercase and lowercase - many languages don't). This course includes a discussion of using picture strings, which have been around a long time, but it has not been updated to include a discussion of regular expressions: http://www.trainersfriend.com/TSO_Clist_REXX_Dialog_Mgr/a633descrpt.htm Kind regards, -Steve Comstock Regards, Alan. -Original Message- From: David Speake [mailto:david.spe...@bcbssc.com] Sent: 11 December 2014 05:06 Subject: Regular Expressions in ISREDIT z/OS 2.01 We have z/OS 2.01 up in the sysprog's sandbox and I am attempting to play with regular expressions in ISREDIT FIND an CHANGE commands both from the command line and within macros.
