I need to edit a job and save all "DB2D' to 'DB2C' ; and '50i' to '90r' and submit the job.
i neeed to change again some variables and submit the job agian

OK, but I don't see a question/problem described anywhere here.

Don't SAVE the JCL. Stack the change commands with SUBMIT and CANCEL so the JCL stays intact for next time.Use RETRIEVE on a PF key to recall the command and go again.

Hi guys can anyone help me out in doing it thru "JCL or COBOL"
bcoz When using Cobol i have to define as many files as i need to change my variables and submit them.


Using JCL, using TSO commands in IKJEFT01 i get only the first record changed .
eg: sysin dd *
edit 'filename'
c* '33u' '50i'
c * 'db2d' 'db2e'
end save
or is there any other utility that can change bcoz its difficult to say their column position.

You can use DFSORT's new FINDREP function, available with z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK90013 (July, 2008), like this:



If you don't have z/OS DFSORT V1R5 PTF UK90013, ask your System Programmer to install it (it's free).

For complete details on the new FINDREP function and the other new functions available with PTF UK90013, see:

Hello,

using TSO commands in IKJEFT01 i get only the first record changed

This is because you did not specify ALL in your change commands. Please review what Bill Dennis posted.

Hello,

Try this:Note: systsin rather than sysin.
