Hi,

I would like toreplace a string with comma (REGION=0M,) to only comma (,) on all members of a PDS:

I use the following step but the string was changed to two commas (,,) instead. Could anyone tell me what went wrong?

Code:
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=FILEAID                                   
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                       
//DD01     DD DSN=MY PDS,
//            DISP=SHR
//SYSIN    DD  *                                             
$$DD01 UPDATE EDITALL=(1,0,C"REGION=0M,",C",")                 
/*   


Thanks,

Det

Its simply the logic you have coded..

Your data will look like
Code:
MSGCLASS=X,REGION=0M,NOTIFY=&SYSUID

And you replaced REGION=0M, to a comma(,) so
it becomes
Code:
MSGCLASS=X,,NOTIFY=&SYSUID


Hope this helps. Laughing

The fact is nothing went wrong !!!

Lets take an example of REGION parameter in a particular step.
Code:

//STEPnn    EXEC  PGM=pgm1,REGION=0M,DYNAMNBR=200
//.....
//.....


Note: There is already a Comma preceding the Region Parameter (pgm1,)

Now when you change "REGION=0M," by "," you will end up in two commas -
1. The one after PGM1.
2. The one replacing the Region parameter.

So, change your File Aid cards as shown below.
Code:

//SYSIN    DD  *                                             
$$DD01 UPDATE EDITALL=(1,0,C",REGION=0M,",C",")                 
/*


or

Code:

//SYSIN    DD  *                                             
$$DD01 UPDATE EDITALL=(1,0,C"REGION=0M,",C"")                 
/*   


Hope this helps,

Thanks,
Phantom

The data can be

PGM=pgm1,REGION=0M,DYNAMNBR=200

PGM=pgm1,REGION=0M

Both the cases CAN be handled..by
Code:
//SYSIN    DD  *                                             
$$DD01 UPDATE EDITALL=(1,0,C",REGION=0M",C"")
