Hi,

My Requirement is,

list the member in a PDS and search the input string in a member and then replace the string by new string

any one help me on this

When I think of a search-and-replace process, outside of using the standard utilities like IPOUPDTE or DFSORT, then I think of using an editor, especially if the strings may be of different lengths. There are different methods that you can use in REXX, using functions like POS, PARSE, LEFT, RIGHT, or WORD to identify a string, and functions like string concatenation, OVERLAY, SUBSTR, etc. to change string content.

I prefer to use an ISPF edit macro which will work for one member or all members in the PDS.

Could you please provide sample code it will help me

Thanks,

Sample code for what? How do you want to accomplish this task? It would be better if you would post YOUR code and tell us where you're having a problem or where you're not sure of what to do.
