Hi,
I need an urgent help.
I am checking the PDS using SYSDSN as by taking PDS member from a file


The SYSDSN takes the parameter as follows

SYSDSN("'E2CTSS2.IIRS.PARMLIB'")


I appended " and ' using || operator as

VAR = 'E2CTSS2.IIRS.PARMLIB(COBRUN)'
VAR1 = '"' || VAR || '"'


I am getting an error

EXTRANEOUS INFORMATION WAS IGNORED: "E2CTSS2.IIRS.PARMLIB(COBRUN)"

How can i solve this...?

Why the double quotes around the dsname ??? Did you see the examples in the fine manual ?

TRY:

DSN1 = "'"||YOUR.FILE||"'"
IF SYSDSN(DSN1) = "OK" THEN
