hi guys, could you tell me the rule to override the parameters in the concatenation. for example i have a catalogue procedure. i want to override the parameter.

if i want to change the disp=new in file1,dsn=newfile in file2, no change in file3. what is the right result.
//proc1 proc
//step exec pgm=hello
//data1 dd dsn=file1, disp=old
// dd dsn=file2, disp=mod
// dd dsn=file3, disp-shr
//

------------------------------------------------------
i am waiting for all your suggestions

thanks

hi dophine80,

you can use this type of code to override the dataset during concatenation.
the below code is your code.

//proc1 proc
//step exec pgm=hello
//data1 dd dsn=file1, disp=old
// dd dsn=file2, disp=mod
// dd dsn=file3, disp-shr
//

you can get the overriding in the file1 alone by the below code given which is used in the other job.

//job......
//step1 exec pgm=proc1
//step.data1 dd dsn=file5,disp=mod
dd
dd
//sysout dd sysout=*
//sysprint dd sysout=*
//syssin dd *
/*

you use this type it will work,

welcome to the comments regarding this

regards,

thank you guys. but i still have a little bit doubt. howt do we deal with the data set not modified in the concatenation.

//proc1 proc
//step exec pgm=hello
//data1 dd dsn=file1, disp=old
// dd dsn=file2, disp=mod
// dd dsn=file3, disp=shr
//

if i do not override file2. is that should be like below
//myjob job notify=dophine80
//step1 exec porc1
//step.data1 dd dsn=newfile,disp=new
// dd
// dd dsn=file3,disp=old
------------------------------------------------------

kind regards
