Your question is not quite clear.

Given an input date, you want to know which system log files to include in your run?

If I understand you correctly, you had previously coded something like this to retrieve records for the current system date:
//SYSIN DD *
  SORT FIELDS=COPY
  INCLUDE COND=(1,8,ZD,EQ,&DATE1)
/*

If this is true, then you can simply change &DATE1 to the character string of the date you want to retreive. If this is not the case, then please provide more details, including what you had coded previously, and sample input records.

Hi Alissa,

In the above quoted statement you have mentioned like it is possible to change &DATE1 to the character string of the date we want. Is it possible to enclose that particular character string in a dataset to retrieve the records?.
If so could you please provide some examples for that?

Thanks,
Maandy.

I'm sorry, but I don't quite follow your question. Are you asking if the current system date can be saved as a record in a file?
