Hi,
Could you please me out in correcting the syntax in changing the value to HEX value.

Schintala,

Please post detailed information on what you're trying to accomplish. Do not make people guess what you mean. This will give you a much better chance of getting a good answer to your question.

For starters you did not provide the PGM/utility you are trying to run. I cannot just guess looking at the control cards.

Post the DCB characterstics of the input and output files along with a sample of input and output data. May be we can suggest an alternate way of accomplishing the task.

Hi, Thank you for the comments. Anyway I figured out the probelm here. I was just using the single quotes in the SYSIN CHANGE key word which I shouldn't use. It should be like this.

//SYSIN DD *
PROCESS(DISK1)
MOVE(1,491,TO,1,491)
MOVE(492,518,TO,496,522)
CHANGE(492,1,X,00)
CHANGE(493,1,X,6F)
CHANGE(494,1,X,00)
CHANGE(495,1,X,6F)
COPY(DISK2)
END(PROCESS)
/*

PS: I am just giving this info for other viewers only.

schintala,

I hope you don't mind telling us about the PGM/utility you are running the above mentioned control cards.

You can use FILEMAIN utility to perform these kind of things through JCL.

//STEP1 EXEC FILEMAIN
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSDUMP DD DUMMY
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//DISK1 DD DSN=MH.DB.ISCAS01.SYSREC00,DISP=(MOD,KEEP)
//DISK2 DD DSN=MH.DB.ISCAS01.SYSREC01,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// DCB=(LRECL=522,BLKSIZE=29754,RECFM=FB),

schintala,

hmm you are excueting a proc name FILEMAIN. The pgm/utility might be different.
