Hello,

Dick, i'm assuming that i would need to submit to the internal reader using your suggestion of building the input concatenation. We can't use the IRDR here. If my assumption is wrong please let me know.
One way could be to use the Internal reader. . .

Another could be to write the jcl into a "scheduling" pds and have the scheduling software submit the job.

Another could be to write the jcl into a PROCedure lib and execute the PROC.
Hope this helps,
d.sch.

Another way...in a standalone job, create your DD concatenation as a mmember in whichever PROCLIB is in use. Then INCLUDE that in the step that is to read the members.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.
