Nope, I mis-recalled. He wants the first jobstep to read its own JCL. Simpler answers than SSI should work.

It is not too complicated: you just allocate it using SVC99 (and some special purpose keys) and open the DD with either a DCB or ACB. See Chapter 2 in "z/OS JES Application Programming" - JES Spool Data Set Browse Kirk Wolf Dovetailed Technologies http://dovetail.com PS> You can use our free Co:Z Utilities in batch to read any spool file and pass the data to your program.
