Hi,

I have a PDS of 30 JOBS.everytime i have to run the entire trail i have to manually go in each job and change the Grand List values.For ex:
For GL0066,everytime i have to assign it current date manually in all the jobs.

My requirement is that i want to trigger a job or a program which will take the current dfate from system and update the GL variable in my PDS with it.
like for today system will pick GL0066 = 022409;
The trigerred job should update this value in all the jobs in my PDS using this GL varaible.
Along with that the dependent GL variable should also get changed:
Like: if GL0068 is getting used it should automatically assigned 022609.

Search for ISPF EDIT macros, also read the manual, for a relatively simple way of doing this. It has been discussed a few times on the forum already.
