I have a report which is getting printed in the spool.Now i need to get that report from spool to be printed in the dataset..i mean it should be printed in the dataset instead of the spool.And should be exactly the same.

Now below is the example of how the header is printed...

There is no way of doing it programmatically, as the WRITE statement have its own unique characteristics (like the Tnotation, the slash mark, and EM).

However, you can add a step in your job to IEBGENER the CMPRT01 to a disk dataset.

Ofer,

Please provide the JCL code to apply this.

I will be needing this to add in the NATRJE accordingly.to create the IEBGENER step in the end.

Thanks

Sorry, using IEBGENER is basic, and it is well documented in the manual.

You may also try for creating a dsn in the JCL itself which will write the report onto the DSN(DSN=MYDSN) instead of spool(sysout=*) in the cmprt01 or the like.

//CMPRT01 DD DSN=NIST.ARYA.MYPRG.REPORT1,
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(TRK,(50,50)),
// DCB=(RECFM=VB,LRECL=4092,BLKSIZE=4096)
