I'm just getting back into Assembler coding after a long hiatus and have run into a problem that I cannot find an answer for. I would like to retrieve the dataset names for files used by my program so that I can produce file processing statistics to place on a report. No problems for non-VSAM files - I just use RDJFCB to grab the dataset names. My question, what is the equivalent for VSAM? Is the dataset name squirreled away in some control block or is there and easy way to get this info. Any ideas or examples would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks in advance!
Homer

I am no Assembler expert but a google search brought up the following link.
