Using REXX, I want to achieve the following:
I want read a member which is same as SYSUID, I tried a lot of options but nothing is working:
"ALLOCATE DDN(INDD) DSN('XYZ.TEST.CLIST(SYSUID)')SHR REUSE"
i tried using UID = SYSVAR('SYSUID') and then concatenating the same to get XYZ.TEST.CLIST(UID) but it is not working.
any pointers will be appreciated. |

might work better without the quotes. |

Hi,
i tried XYZ.TEST.CLIST(&SYSUID). Just wanted to clarify i am using REXX and not CLIST.
this is error message i am getting,
INVALID DATA SET NAME, 'OBATDD.TEST.STARTUP(&SYSUID)'
MISSING DATA SET NAME OR *+
MISSING NAME OF DATA SET TO BE ALLOCATED
also, i had tried even using SYSVAR(SYSUID) but again no luck. |

Oops my bad.. I saw CLIST 
| Code: |
/*- REXX ------*/
S=USERID()
SAY "ALLOC F(SORTIN) DA('XYZ.TEST.CLIST("S")') SHR REUSE"

What would've been wrong with just using the USERID() built-in function:
"ALLOCATE DDN(INDD) DSN('XYZ.TEST.CLIST("USERID()")') SHR REU" |
