Generally disposition PASS is used for temprory File which u want to use in the susequent step but there is no any append or modification for ur temp file.
While KEEP used for temprory File which u want to use in the susequent step and there is some modifiction for that temp file.

Is it... I think system is automatically consider KEEP as PASS for temp datasets. Only difference can be made by DELETE. |

I didn't mean to say that... I said it doesn't make any difference for TEMP datasets when you code PASS or KEEP.
Its DELETE which can be differentiate with PASS.
Even though you code frequent KEEP on TEMP Dataset, its going to be deleted at the end of the job.

Do you mean to say, TEMP Datasets cant be modified until specified KEEP ??? |
