I typically use the PDSPDS program from CBT file 40. Uncertain who to credit that too.

I'm looking for a reasonable way to replace all occurrences of a given string in a dataset. UNIX shell command? DFSMS utility that I have forgotten about? CBT program? Nothing fancy. I have a PDS with seven or so members. I want to replace all instances of $REPLACEME$ with NEWSTRING. I know which members contain the pattern so I could live with *either* something that did the whole PDS, or something where I had to specify the specific members. First choice would be something that copied the PDS, but I can make my own copy and live with a replace-in-place. I could write Rexx to do it so that's my bottom line -- it has to be easier than writing a Rexx program. Any suggestions?
