Hi all,
what is use of SET Commands in jcl?

As far as my Knoledge goes, The SET statement is used to assign values to symbolic parameters that appear within a job's JCL or within JCL procedures called by the job.
Ex: In the below example we can set the program name and pass it
// SET PGM=PGMA
.
.
.
//SYSIN DD DSN=@MANO.COBOL.SOURCE(&PGM),DISP=SHR
//SYSOBJ DD DSN=@MANO.PRODOBJ,DISP=SHR
//SYSLIN DD DSN=@MANO.PRODOBJ(&PGM),DISP=SHR |

suzeet's description of the JCL SET parameter is exactly right.
To answer your second question, yes, you can code like you have shown. |
