Hi,
i am writing a JCL.
By default i need to have // in the 1-2 coloums in the member.

I remember a command where we can specify the string to repeat...but could n't recollect it.

Could anyone help me out?

2 options:
1. Use the MASK command.
2. Use copy ('C') and override('O').

Try this:
On the command line within the member type
c 1 2 '@@' '//' all

c - Change
1 2 - start-end of the coulmn
'@@' - For ur member give Spaces instead of @
'//' - replace string

hi Archana,

c 1 2 '@@' '//' all wasn't working.
May be......what you mean was
C 1 2 P'@' '//'

Am i write?? I wan '//' get inserted automatically when ever i write a new line. But the command will only after i completed the code.

Thanks
