Is there a simple way of say cloning a member of a pds 100 times, with different member names?
It's sickeningly boring Copying one member after another!
easier solution please!!

Thanks

Enigma,

The following JCL will give you the desired results.


Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=SORT
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SORTIN DD DSN=YOUR.PDS(MEMBER TO BE COPIED),
//          DISP=SHR
//OUT001 DD DSN=YOUR.PDS(NEW MEMBER NAME1),
//          DISP=SHR
//OUT002 DD DSN=YOUR.PDS(NEW MEMBER NAME2),
//          DISP=SHR
...
//OUT100 DD DSN=YOUR.PDS(NEW MEMBER NAME100),
//          DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD *
  OPTION COPY
  OUTFIL FNAMES=(OUT001,OUT002,OUT003,OUT004,OUT005,
                 OUT006,OUT007,OUT008,OUT009,
                  ...,
                 OUT096, OUT097,OUT098,OUT099,OUT100)
/*


Hope this helps...

cheers

I always used a simple edit macro along the lines of:
Code:

/* REXX */ address isredit
'macro'
do a = 1 to 100
  'replace membr'||right(a,3,'0')||' .zl .zf'
end
