Hi,
I have a PDS which consist of 800 members and i want to know which all the members doesnt have a string present in them.
For Example:
Say the string is OUTDUMP and i want to know which all member doesnot have this string.
Can anyone tell me the command.
I have tried SRCHFOR OUTDUMP but it is not working in my system. |

Do not post "it doesn't work" - that just wastes everyone's time. When something does not work, you need to post what you tried (more completely than "searchfor outdump") - which menu(s) did you use? Which commands, if any? What was the outcome? An error? An abend?
I use searchfor rather often with no problems. . . |

| The solution which u gave wont work. The string is present in so many members as i have checked it. So it will be again a manual search according to your solution as i need to check first which member is not present. I dont want to do that. |

In tso/ispf go to utilities (usually option 3). What is option 13 or so. There should be a SEARCH FOR and a SEARCH FOR Extended. Are these on your system? Try them and post back the outcome.
If you create a list of members that have the OUTDUMP you can compare that list against the full member list and the ones that do not match, do not have OUTDUMP. |

Hi deepak
If you have fileaid installed then you can use fileaid option 3.6 ( SEARCH/UPDATE) to create a list of members that have the OUTDUMP. The advantage over ISPF option is that here you can directly get the member names only leaving aside the individual lines containing the OUTDUMP variable. |

Your automation requires multiple steps:
1. get list of all members
2. get list of members that contain search text using SRCHFOR
3. from list 1, remove the members that are in list 2. |
