I created my fist RFE, so be gentle.

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=81822

Use the GDGORDER parameter for a DD that specifies the base name of a GDG data 
set (a GDG-all request). This keyword specifies the order in which the 
individual generation data sets (GDSs) will be concatenated.

This RFE is to request that the GDGORDER on JCL apply not only to the base but 
the individual generation numbers as well.

For example.  If I code //GDG  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=GDGBASE,GDGORDER=FIFO   I can 
get to the oldest entry.
I would also like to see

//GDG  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=GDGBASE(0),GDGORDER=FIFO
//GDG  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=GDGBASE(-1),GDGORDER=FIFO
and so forth.

This is to allow the reading of GDG Base backwards and forward as well as get 
selected entries.

If you think this would be beneficial, please vote.

Thank you
Lizette
