|
|
Hi,
We have a requirement to process more than 200 physical sequential files(Approx) . The files are in the format:
HSI.RQ32251.#####.CMF where ##### is a 5 digit panel number varies time to time. I just want to combine all the contents of these data sets into a single data set ( the new data set contains all the records of 200 files used in later steps).
Could you please suggest how can I merge all these data sets using an utility ( we dont want to use a Rexx/SAS to do this).
Can we use HSI.RQ32251.*.CMF, wild card representation while loading all these data sets in IDCAMS.?
Thanks,
Kris |

I don't know why you do not want to use REXX, but it seems that a good solution would involve its use. Other than that, think you are going to have to know the all of the possible values of that third qualifier. If you had that information, then presumably, you could set this up as a set of GDGs.
You'd then bring in the current Gen which you could set up to be empty if it is part of your requirement to only bring in current data.
