As far as I know, there is no such option in ISPF's SUPERC. You can run 3 separate searched,and then merge the results.

Javeed,

As I know, You can't do it in 3.14 and if you press F8, It says "End of data".

But you can give multiple search string in 3.15(-Extended Search-For Utility-). Screen will be just like below.

Code:
Search DS Name  . .                                                         
PDS Member List . . *         (blank/pattern - member list, * - search all) 
                                                                             
(Leave Search DSN "blank" for concatenated-uncataloged-password panel)       
                                                                             
Enter Search Strings and Optional operands (WORD/PREFIX/SUFFIX,C)           
   Caps . .                                                                 
   Caps . .                                                                 
   Caps . .                                                                 
   Asis . .                                                                 


Or you can use SRCHFOR command in 3.4 and it will pop up with screen asking for the STRINGs to searched.

Hi Ganesh,

You can search your strings using Multiple search option:

'Text1 = A'
'Text1 = B'
'Text1 = C'




Thanks,

Hi ganesh,

If I'm reading you correctly (and I recall correctly icon_smile.gif ):
Quote:
'TEXT1 = 'A' OR 'B' OR 'C' '

should be written:
Quote:
'TEXT1 = ''A'' OR ''B'' OR ''C'''

P.S. I also think you wanted to say:
Quote:
I want to search a FOR A string like

Using 3.15, you can search multiple strings, you can search strings which have lower case letters, can search in multiple datasets by concatenating datasets.

3.14 is SEARCH-FOR UTILITY

3.15 is EXTENDED SEARCH-FOR UTILITY
