Hi Everyone,

I need to delete

1 - is it your dataset to delete?
2 - is it allocated (use ISRDDN)?

If it is allocated you will have to deallocate it before you can delete it.

"couldn't do that" isn't much information. What did you try, and what error did you get?

Sorry for given less info.

I tried to delete the 'userid.TSO.EXEC' dataset. I am getting a message as 'Data set is open'. I verified, this dataset not opened in any my other sessions.

Once I allocated this dataset initially, it was automatically present in ISRDDN dataset list.

So it is allocated to your session - you have to deallocate it before you can delete it.
