Anyhow we will be using the following code in JCL
//SORTIN01 DD DSNAME (INFILE NAME)
//SORTIN02 DD DSNAME (INFILE NAME)
//SORTIN03 DD DSNAME (INFILE NAME)
//SORTIN04 DD DSNAME (INFILE NAME)
...
....
//SORTIN99 DD DSNAME (INFILE NAME)

Actually, it is possible to merge up to 100 data sets. SORTIN00 is also valid.
