What scheduler are you using?

TWS will calculate a date 30 days previously in any fomat you require and substitute that in to the JCL at run time.

I daresay other schedulers will have similar functionality. That would eliminate the need for a previous step to genereate the ACF control cards.

Hey Blackthorn,
I am using a CA-7 scheduler.

Look up CARPROC in the CA-7 manuals, in particular the CA-7 Interfaces Guide manual, and the chapter on CA-Driver Procedures, Variable Parameters, and Functions.

Hey All,
What i want is to select a particular date range in JCL. If I get the system-date in JCL(in form of some variable or so), then i can compare that date with my date and accordingly proceed further..

Any helps??

THanks in Advance
