How to eliminate a JOBLIB statement from a PROC

hi,

we can override a particular input dataset at a step as follows,
//step1.inputdd dd dsn=.....
can anyone tell me how to eliminate a particular input dataset.

i have a proc which i cannot edit. this proc is executed by a JCL. whenever i want to override that is to change the input dataset at a particular line, i will do as the above one. now i face a situation such that i have to eliminate the JOBLIB statement which was mistakenly coded in the PROC inside a step. please anyone provide me a way to do that. I want that JOBLIB statement not to be executed.

Thanks,
Bala

One solution is copy the proc to your dataset and in your JCL add JCLLIB to point to your proc. You can make whatever changes you want to make in the PROC after that.

the other option would be to use STEPLIB overide. If you have multiple steps(EXEC) then you need to add steplib for all the steps.

JOBLIB is not allowed in a PROC.
i have not tested it, but i think such a proc will generate a JCL-Error
