Kevin,

It's difficult to digest the concept/logic used in COBOL to identify the DS name by using POINTER.

Could you please elaborate the logic.

Hi raghav08 !

You don't have to realize the concept of the triggering in TCB,TIOT,JFCB.
Don't get overly excited. Just take it as a fact.

The samples provided by Kevin are in great detail.
Try them all, then use the one you like.

Nice weekend
