Hi All,

I want to find all the words starting with letter 'J' (i.e. JXXXX) in all members of a PDS dataset . This can be done using PICTURE find command (i.e. F P'J@@@' ALL) for a single member in an ISPF editor.

But my doubt is : Can we use this command (F P'J@@@' ALL) in 3.14 search option on all members of a PDS dataset ? If yes, How ?

Please give suggestions.

superc search provides a member list of which you can select which members to search or you can use the * operator to indicate that you want all members searched.

PF1 is your friend. Superc Help is very extensive.

Hi Dick,
My actual problem is, the command ( F P'J@@@' ALL ) is not allowed to be used in search string of 3.14 option as it is even for a single member. Since P is function (keyword) not a string we can't put in quotes i guess.

I want to know how to make use of this function to find all words starting with J in all members of PDS. If you have any other method also please suggest.

if you refuse to look at help to see what you can do, try this:

f ' J' <<<<<<<<find spaceJ you miss words staring in col 1 (no space)

Hi dick ,
you gave very simple solution. It almost suits requirement except the cases where the words are prefixed by '.' or some symbols.

Thanx for answer.
