Hi,
I am trying search a string which is having quotes within string. i.e.

Try:

'SYS=''T'''

The string soes NOT need to be enclosed in quotes. You double the embedded quotes. Do this:

SYS=''T''

Hi Grant,

'SYS=''T''' is not working. It does not give any error but it failed in producing the required results.

Hi Bill,
The string i need to search is having single quotes SYS='T'.

SYS="T" does not find SYS='T' but it finds SYS="T" occurrences.

Hi Bill,
Sorry. I took your answer as T enclosed in two double quotes. That is why it didn't work.

I have one more question. I want to find all the words starting with letter 'J' (i.e. JXXXX) in all members of a PDS dataset . This can be done using PICTURE find command (i.e. F P'J@@@' ALL) for a single member in an ISPF editor. But my doubt is : can we use this command in 3.14 search utility on all members of a PDS dataset ? If yes, How ?

Waiting for your reply.
