This character can be used in dataset names with no tricks like name in apostrophes, uncataloged ones, etc.But not, in my experience, in a reference to define DCB subparameters such as: DCB=HLQ.FOO-BAR * Syntax error! <https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/3.1.0?topic=dp-syntax-2> Is there any plausible reason for that restriction I hate JCL!
I have to admit: I almost never used DCB keyword in JCL and (AFAIR) absolutely never DCB=HLQ.DATASET.NAME.
When teaching JCL I explain it, but also advice to not using that. BTW: LIKE=HLQ.FOO-BAR works like a charm. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
