It was similar to something I was considering posting about output to a UNIX file instead of a z/OS legacy dataset. Create with a fixed file name, then run Co:Z Launcher in the next step to do a mv (aka "rename") to a fixed prefix with a suffix of .yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss by using the UNIX date command. I could even use the "todsn" command previously mentioned to "emulate" a GDG-ALL process to a DD which is a temp file to be read in a subsequent step.
Hum, might be interesting to dust off GPSAM from the CBT and design something to do something like GDG processing of UNIX files using "normal" JCL. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
