Hi,
I want to write a REXX utility such that I want to compare two programs and write the diffrences into another dataset.

Can anybody tell me how to compare the two members of a PDS to get the diffrences??

Thanks

Why not use SuperC (see option 3 in ISPF). It already does that. You can generate listings or delta files.

No..the requirement is to write a REXX utility to do this.
Because this is just a part of the whole project.
So need to do this using REXX.

Of course you can do it in Rexx, however....

Rexx is as powerfull as the 'tools' he uses

So, regarding comparisons, your choosing is between having a 'byke'-Rexx or a '747'-rexx.

As posted above you may use superC, AND use it from your Rexx, AND your end user may not even notice the use of it. Well just my $.02
