Hi,

I have to get exact match of string in list od PDS .Please let me know if anyone has any idea.

Actually my main requirement is search particular copybook(nexted copybopooks) used in list of the programs and copybooks.fo rthe sae i have coded the JCL as follows:

//LLLLLLLM JOB (YYYYYYY),'SCAN',CLASS=V,MSGCLASS=W,
// NOTIFY=LLLLLLL
//SEARCH EXEC PGM=ISRSUPC,
// PARM=(SRCHCMP,
// 'ANYC MIXED')
//NEWDD DD DSN=XXXXXXX.A.B,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=XXXXXXX.D.E.DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=ZZZZZZZ.X.Y,DISP=SHR
//OUTDD DD SYSOUT=(A)
//SYSIN DD *
SRCHFOR 'F210CU'
/* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

but this is returning additiona results also it ios also listing the F210CUE whereas my requirement is to list only F210CU.

please suggest if anyone has idea regarding the same or any material if anyone has.any suggestion how i can achieve the same.

Hello,

Try puttng a space between the U and the quotation-mark. . .

What you got are not additonal results - it is exactly what was asked for. . .

//SYSIN DD *
SRCHFOR 'F210CU',W
/*

Doc here, use ISPF to create JCL to see how to do it in batch.

MBabu,
Will that include or exclude F210CU if it's followed by a period?

Hello,

Are the 2 "hit" values "'F210CU '" and "'F210CU.'" or are there more possibilities?
