| Use IDCAMS LISTCAT to create the list of entries, and SORT to select the last entry from the list. |

Hi,
Thanks for your information. Let me try out with that.
Hi Expat,
Here is the reason why i need that...
A job takes a GDG version as input. When it fails, i want to get that GDG generation name, (for which the has failed) in the report.
Thank you. |

Try the following jcl for your requirement and go by what Kevin has mentioned.
| Code: |

//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

PRINT INFILE(DD1) COUNT(0) CHAR
