hi dick,
thnks for the response. But i dont want to clone it 100 times, and give the name of the 100PDS names manually. my datasets are like x.y.z.n1(abc),
x.y.x.n2(abc), x.y.z.n3(abc) etc..so if i clone it 100 times, i need to specify n1, n2, n3 manually.. is there is any other way to solve this? |

Hello,
You probably realize that you have spent more time trying to get around building the statements than it would have taken to build them.

I believe this is not completely accurate. If all of your dsn's are in sequence you can do this very quickly editing. Create the first one and repeat it 8 times - these become n1 thr n9. Repeat these and add a n0 at the beginning of the second set. Insert a 1 after n and before the digit (0-9). Copy these 10 and change 1x to 2x. And so on.
For giggles, i did it in well under 2 minutes. . . It took longer to type those "directions" than to create the series  |
